Why We Love It: Jon Klassen somehow turns a simple red truck into the world's most dependable sidekick. It never complains, never runs out of gas, and is always up for whatever adventure comes next.

Jon Klassen creates books that quietly lure you in with simple illustrations and then hit you with a joke three pages later. Known for his deadpan humor, unforgettable characters, and eyes that somehow do most of the storytelling, Klassen has become a modern legend in children's books. His stories are funny, slightly odd, and packed with the kind of cleverness that makes kids laugh and grown-ups glance at each other across the room. Exactly our kind of book.
