Pickup Little Green happily carts crops and hauls pigs with Farmer Gray. But when a new heavy-duty truck arrives, Little Green is put out to pasture--until the farmer's daughter spruces him up for a new purpose. Stylized, graphic illustrations, predominantly in oranges and greens, show the refurbished truck proudly parked at market, surrounded by an admiring (racially diverse) crowd.
