When Rescue Rita turns to him for help in getting out of a jam, constant worrier Cement Mixer Melvin fears that he won't be able to do the job, but with no other option in sight, Cement Mixer Melvin musters all the courage he has, rolls onto the scene, and saves the day to the delight of Rescue Rita and all his Trucktown friends. 350,000 first printing. - Simon and Schuster
Cement Mixer Melvin worries a lot. He worries he might get dirty. He worries he might get stuck. He even worries he might get worried. But one fateful day Rescue Rita is in need of a little rescuing, and Trucktown's biggest worrywart is the only one who can save the day. There's just one problem: He worries he can't. Jon Scieszka's latest racing and rollicking installment to the Trucktown franchise is a hilarious (and maybe even a little heartwarming) look at all the things a cement mixer can do...no matter how much he worries!
