Find out in this fun to read rhyming story. Filled with colourful and expressive illustrations featuring a comical car and truck. If they could talk, Drew's day may have turned out much differently.

...This amusing story reminded me of reading about Curious George with all the Unintentional mishaps that Drew ends up in...I enjoyed that the book also shows children playing an active role in activities with family, which is extremely important for children's self-esteem... -Literary Titan Editorial Review
Attentive Children
This book showcases the obvious, that children watch our every move. Drew observes Mom and knows what one button inside her car can do. Maybe? The first attempt to be helpful begins the day's troublesome journey. We learn lessons through trial and error, but Drew hopes your child will learn from the mistakes made in What a Muck.
This book is great for sparking a conversation. Even when we have good intentions, things can go the wrong way...a sweet rhyming colourful picture book... -Author, Medea Kalantra
Rhyming
A good book doesn't have to rhyme, but a good rhyming book serves an important purpose. Rhyme helps aid in a child's language and reading development. It teaches verbal and memory skills. When a child hears pitch and rhythm, they are developing listening and attention skills. When a book is easy and fun, a child builds confidence in the ability to recite it. This leads to more reading. When reading is fun to hear or listen to, your child develops important academic skills, all the while being entertained.
...a delightful rhyming book with a fun and past-paced story. I love the cororful illustrations and the expressions...a great job introducing car safety to children. -Author, Pat Black-Gould
A Delightful Book...The rhyming text is fun and will catch the attention of a child... -Amazon Review
Gender Identity
Drew is gender neutral, never referred to as he or she. Just a person like you and me.
