Description de l’éditeur
Down at the construction site, mama and papa trucks show their youngsters how to build. Push oosh goes a big mama bulldozer and her one little dozer! Dig schlup goes a tough papa excavator and his two little excavators!
Count along with every scooping, mashing, and spinning family of trucks in the construction site--all the way from the bright early morning till it's time to snuggle in to bed in this read-to-me eBook. Picture book talents Rhonda Gowler Greene and Daniel Kirk have joined together for a book that will dig its way into the hearts of those who love Where Do Diggers Sleep at Night? and Digger, Dozer, Dumper.

Greene restages the "Over in the Meadow" counting song using families of trucks at a construction site: "Over by the dirt pile, tipping loads all set to pour,/ works a mama dump truck with her little dumpers four." Other crews include "a mama cement mixer with her little mixers six" and "a papa asphalt paver with his little pavers nine." In digitally colored ink drawings, Kirk gives the trucks anthropomorphic features and accessories, albeit fairly stereotypical ones eyelashes and hair bows for many of the ladies, ball caps and bandannas for the boys and takes care to space out the vehicles in such a way that they are easily countable. Showing the gentler side of construction sites and big rigs, Greene and Kirk's excursion should satisfy young truck-lovers. Ages 2 5.
