Praise for Big Rig Rescue! (Big Rescue)

[A] love song to rescue vehicles in cold, remote places.
— Kirkus Reviews

Gall’s storytelling is as muscular as the rigs he celebrates: precisionist-style renderings continually move around and over the scene to satisfy the curiosity of truck aficionados, while detail-rich, matter-of-fact prose honors their enthusiasm and knowledge.

Dynamic illustrations bring readers along for the ride, as our narrator-guide confidently explains each step of the rig rescue process.
