Reviews

[Michael Fitzgerald · Rating 4 out of 5]

Interestingly, this is a book written AND illustrated by Russell Hoban, who began his career as an artist.

This is an informative and kid-friendly look at the way different construction vehicles work by the author of the Frances the Badger books. The illustrations were the appeal for me - lots of great detail that truck-obsessed kids love.
