Description

Bing! Bang! Chugga! Beep! is the latest charming tale from rhyming pair Bill Martin Jr and Michael Sampson. This old car has been everywhere from the backyard to the sky, from the hills to the water. Bouncing between the mud in the ground and the clouds up high, the old car is loved by a clever young boy, just as readers will love this singsong story from an iconic children's author duo.

Critical Reviews

"Young children will love everything about this book and will soon be "reading" it to anyone who will listen... playful, high-octane fun!"--Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Bing! Bang! Chugga! Beep! incites a child-like happiness in the reader. Penning the book in rhyme, to the iconic tune of 'This Old Man, ' will place this joyful romp of a picture book on the bedtime story rota in households everywhere. By the second spread, my toes were a-tapping; by the fifth, I was belting out the verses. The collage - rendered in primary colors that would cheer the glummest child or most curmudgeonly adult -- makes for a perfect marriage of text and illustration."--Carmen Agra Deedy, New York Times Bestselling Author and Host of the Emmy Award-Winning Children's Program, "Love That Book!"

"This is a simple, fun bath time/bedtime book with a surprise ending and an unforgettable tune. New rhythmic, rollicking words by the legendary Bill Martin Jr and Michael Sampson bring an age-old tune alive, and Beauvois's boisterous, bright collages illustrate the day in the life of a little toy truck. Easily readable and creatively placed, dancing words keep us moving through the book without missing a beat. Be careful! This book might just keep kids up, singing in the bath and dancing on the bed!" --Micha Archer, Caldecott Honoree and Ezra Jack Keats Award-Winning Illustrator

"Kids will be singing the refrain 'bing, bang, chugga, beep' with the first read! Bright and colorful illustrations by Nathalie Beauvois add to the fun. A nice addition to round out a vehicle-centered story time." --Lora Koehler, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of The Little Snowplow

"A rollicking ride written in perfect rhyme with a surprising, satisfying twist at the end. I was singing all the way!" --Chris Van Dusen, New York Times Bestselling Author and E.B. White Read Aloud Award Winner of If I Built a Car
