Join Digger at the roadworks where she decides she no longer likes digging down – she wants to dig UP!
This is quite tricky for a digger used to going into mud, dark and worms – maybe some balloons will help? But Digger quickly discovers that adventures aren't fun without her friends and she needs to dig her way back . . . but how?
With a witty text, bright colours and a finger trail to follow from the award-winning Morag Hood, young children and adults will love reading Dig, Dig, Digger! together.
Keep digging in the hilarious follow-up, Runaway Cone.

“Digger was really cute. I feel bad for her at the beginning because she didn’t want to do her job but she had to do it. I liked that she digged all the way home!” - Lucas
