About the Author
Roger Priddy left school at 16 with just one qualification―in art. He went to Berkshire College of Art and Design and trained as an illustrator. His first job in children's books was working with the publisher Peter Usborne, at Usborne Publishing, and then he worked with Peter Kindersley at Dorling Kindersley, where he spent 16 years. Priddy became Creative Director of DK's Children's Division and was Managing Director of the children's mass market publisher Funfax when it was acquired by DK.
In 2000, he created Priddy Books with John Sargent at St Martin's Press to create innovative and imaginative titles for children, from first books for babies through early reference titles for older children. Since then, over 30 million copies of Roger's 200 plus books have sold worldwide, with five of his books―My Big Animal, My Big Truck, Happy Baby Words, Happy Baby Colors and Puppy and Friends―each selling over one million copies. He is also the author of Big Board First 100 Words; Big Board Books Colors, ABC, Numbers; and Bright Baby Noisy Monsters. His creativity has been recognized with numerous industry awards. Priddy lives in London with his wife Zena and their four children.

About the author
Roger Priddy is the creator of over two hundred best selling books for young children including Wipe Clean ABC, First 100 Words, and Fuzzy Bee.
When he was at school he couldn't decide between being a patisserie chef or going to art college. On the advice of his father he chose art college and trained as an illustrator before becoming a designer at Usborne Publishing.
Roger's love for children's early learning has led him to create some of the most successful children's non-fiction books, first at Dorling Kindersley (My First Word Book, Incredible Cross Sections and My First Cook Book) before he set up Priddy Books with St. Martins Press in New York where several of his books have sold over a million copies each including First 100 Words, My Big Animal Book and See Touch Feel.
In total he has sold over 150 million books worldwide and his books have been translated into over 30 languages.
He says "It is always rewarding to see a child enjoying and learning something from one of our books, especially the babies when you think it could be the first book they have ever seen.
I am very lucky to have a career where you get to think up fun ways to teach a kid how to write their letters and learn their first words whilst finding out about Dinosaurs at the same time!"
Roger lives in Somerset and has three children, who have given him some of his best ideas for his books.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2011First of all, the quality of the book is excellent. One can feel the richness.
Thick pages and the large buttons with color pictures are in neat plastic.
This works on button cell it seems. When each button is pressed it makes the engine sound
or fire force siren etc.
Since the quality is very good, this is good for a gift too.
Once again I appreciate the quality of the book, clear photographs, thick pages
and very good plastic buttons and speaker. The loudness is enough and safe for a child.
To invoke the device the first time, pull that paper tail out from the back cover of
the book. This will switch the device on. You can also lock the device, by putting
back the paper tail back to it's place.
This book is shipped directly from UK. It may take two weeks or more to arrive.
But it's worth it.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2015Bought this book for my great nephew who loves trucks, tractors and the sounds the make. I had read reviews on this where people were disappointed in the sound quality, I was not. The sounds were realistic and this book was a winner for any little one who's ears perk up when they hear the sound of a truck.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2016I bought this for my 1-1/2 yr old Grandson for X-mas. He loves it. Pushes the buttons and drapes the book over his face so to be immersed in the sounds. It is simple and great for the boys in your family!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2013My 20 month old son couldn't care less about this book and he loves trucks and he loves sound books. I believe it's because the sounds do not really reflect the sounds those trucks make. For example the mixer truck only makes a honking noise, the dump truck noise is just the beeping when trucks drive backward, the firetruck noise and the tractor noise are great, but super short (3 seconds). The pictures and the quality of the book are nice. I would not buy it again.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2014My two year old grandson loves this book. He can spend a good 15-minutes just sitting there looking at the pictures and pushing the buttons of hearing the sounds the different trucks make! He has already familiarized himself with all the different sounds and loves hearing the wale of the fire enjine. Well worth the price! Would definitely buy from this vendor again!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2014I bought this for my son's first birthday. Both he and my 3-year old who loves trucks really like pushing the buttons. The text is a little much and could be more interesting, but otherwise it's a great book for truck loving toddlers and preschoolers.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2014My grandson loves this book! The truck sounds are distinct and he loves the colorful pictures. Built very rugged. Stands up so far to his rambunctiousness!! Would recommend for any little boy - or girl if she likes trucks!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2022Book came used from a goodwill store with a price tag on it of 2.99 which I paid a lot more then that. Batteries were not working and looks to have both been exploded.

Lovely book with super noises for our 14 month old grandson - might get on his parents nerves a bit though!
- emmaReviewed in the United Kingdom on May 8, 2016
1.0 out of 5 stars Totally useless. Can't see why I should have to pay ...
Awful!!!!! No battery case backing so can't insert battery's to use!!!! Totally useless. Can't see why I should have to pay to send this item back in order to receive a replacement or refund (only options available to me). VERY disappointed!! They whole point of this buying this book was because it made noises, my disabled son enjoys sounds but in order for me to reap the benefits of this book that I paid for I have to repackage this book and go to a post office and pay to send it back in order to get what I paid for!!!???? NOT HAPPY!!!!!!! RUBBISH
- MizzmathieuReviewed in Canada on January 20, 2013
4.0 out of 5 stars Great for boys who love big trucks!
Son loved to hear the sound the big trucks made so he was extremely happy to be able to have a book at home to make the noise.
