Meet a New York City Garbage truck. He loves his job. He's bold, brash, and loud. He considers your garbage breakfast- Yum! He dose not care if he wakes you up in the morning. He stinks, and he's proud of it. After all, if he did not stink, your neighborhood would be called Mount Trash-o-rama. This is a fun book that boys will appreciate.
