{"product_id":"9781944218027","title":"What Does A Truck Driver Do?","description":"What DOES a truck driver do, when his truck gets stuck under a bridge? How do birds feel about airplanes? And how exactly do you manage to skip an entire day, when you're sailing on the open sea? - This illustrated book of poems considers many big questions (and small ones too) about our convoluted world - but author Mattie Sivert answers these questions lightly and playfully. Her haiku, limericks, riddles, and other wry verses describe the shared world of grownups and children in a way that lets children feel at home in that world too. This volume is a sharp and cheeky collection of poetic observations on family, nature, and daily life on earth, accompanied by the whimsical illustrations of an equally irreverent bunch: the author's great-grandchildren. \u003cp\u003eYes, it takes a whole family to make a book like this one. Mattie Sivert wrote poetry throughout her life, for the amusement of her students, her children, and herself. Years later, Mattie's daughter Mary discovered a manila envelope holding a treasure trove of verse, edited them into a collection, and asked her own ten grandchildren to illustrate them. The children - ranging in age from three to twenty - responded with enthusiasm. The result is a charming collection of illustrated verse that brings to life the vibrant imagination of this talentedwriter her great-grandchildren never knew.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roya Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47061222588656,"sku":"9781944218027","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781944218027_p0.jpg?v=1763803715","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781944218027","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
