With prose as clean as Sam's the narrator's shiny engine, Byron Barton,
the celebrated creator of numerous picture books for very young
children, including Trucks, My Bus, and Building a House, explores
transportation, the parts of a car, signs and signals, night and day,
community, and occupations.
Bright, graphic artwork invites readers to count, name colors and
shapes, and follow Sam and his car as they drive through a bustling
world from Sam's home in the country to his job in the city. The
surprise ending is a gem! "For young children intrigued by cars, this
book is simply wonderful."--ALA Booklist
