About the book

 

The story of Hansel and Gretel gets a Truck Tales twist!

For kids who love all things cars and trucks comes the latest in the Truck Tales series! Hansel and Diesel's father is the village's hardworking cement mixer. But when deliveries of cement suddenly stop, Papa Truck can't work. Who will fix the roads? What about the sidewalks? Hansel and Diesel set off to investigate—and get lost deep in the woods and imprisoned by a witch. But it's not for nothing that Hansel and Diesel are the bravest, cleverest trucks in all the land. Quick thinking, courage, and a little cement save the day in this hilarious mixed-up fairy tale!
