Great Big Car and Truck Book

Rating:
Summary: Great Early Scarry
Review: Example of Scarry illustration before he honed his style into that which he would become popular. Great drawings of fifties era cars, particulary commercial vehicles: Ice Cream truck, Flower Delivery, etc.

The page depicting a family on vacation is hilariously un-PC: The father is relaxing and smoking his pipe while the wife scrubs a pot at the sink in the camper. Outside, the toddler looks longingly from the confines of his crib as the boy shoots off his toy gun.
