Alley How Many Trucks Can a Tow Truck Tow (Pictureback) Paperback Januby Charlotte Pomerantz (Author), R. I didn't know or care that 'girls don't like stories about trucks.' It was quite a foreign concept to me, and I'm thankful that I had the freedom to enjoy whatever I wanted. I selected this book, and at one point, I nearly had it memorized: I loved the charming concept, story, and illustrations, and now appreciate how free from stereotypes I was at that age. We went down to the charming local bookstore my family loved, and I looked around at all my options.
