Join a wacky animal crew for an action-packed tour of four amazing
machines. Scoop and shovel with a dazzling digger, zoom to the moon in
a roaring rocket and race to the rescue aboard a flashing fire engine.
Last stop is a terrific train as it clickety-clacks down the track.
This book features playful rhyming text, brilliantly bold art and a helpful picture dictionary that make learning about machines more fun than ever before.
Tony Mittonhas been writing since he was 9. He began writing specifically for children while working as a primary school and special needs teacher. He now works full-time as a writer and sometimes performs his poems in schools and libraries and other venues, mainly in the UK. His picture books includeDown by the Cool of the Pool(with Guy Parker-Rees) and The Somethingosaur(with Russell Ayto).
He lives in a small house in the middle of Cambridge with his wife and two children, and a cat called Tiggy, who is definitely one of the family. Tony likes Cambridge but he and his wife often wish they'd settled somewhere where there are better places for walking, like cliffs and hills with good views of the landscape.
