0-5 years. The perfect book for any machine-mad child. Diggers, tractors, fire-engines, cranes, bulldozers, dumper trucks and more are vividly described in cheerful rhymes which pick up and celebrate the sounds of the machines.. Glorious double page spreads capture the scale of the different vehicles and the places that they work. And it all ends with a soothing night time scene of all the machines at rest. Perfect for bedtime! The accompanying CD adds a brilliant reading of it, completely with mechanical sounds. (2+)
"Diggers are good at dig, dig, digging, scooping up the earth and lifting and tipping. They make huge holes with their dig, dig, digging. They can work all day." Trucks and tractors, fire engines and helicopters-they all like to work hard. But after a long, happy day of beep-beeping and vroom-vrooming, even the busiest engines need to rest. This bright, bouncy, noise-filled book brings together all the vehicles that children adore.
