Great Book!

2008-11-17
This is my 2-year-old grandson's favorite book. We had it checked out of the library off & on for most of the last year before I broke down and bought it. Lots of drawings of construction equipment and a story of building a road to tie it all together.

My 2 Year Old Always Asks for this one

He doesn't get sick of it! He loves pointing out all the different types of trucks, finding the boss, and talking about the road builders going to build their next road.

The best book for Truck obsessed toddlers!

I bought this book second hand for 1.50 and wow, 1 year later it is still his favorite book. Our copy is held together with packing tape and glue. Every time I get bored with it and hide it, he still manages to find it. My two year old will never part with his road builders book

My boy loves this book!

If your little one is interested in construction machines, this book is a must. It is great. My boy memorized the words to this book when he was three and it helped him learn to read. The pictures are wonderful-- colorful and cartoonish yet very detailed as well.

Great step by step description

This is an excellent book. Starts with an overview and pictures of all the trucks needed to build a road and then proceeds with step-by-step with a picture of each truck doing its work. My son (who is 2 and 1/2) and I really enjoy this book. Our other truck books tend to show the whole process of building a road on one page and that is too overwhelming. This book does it just right!

A simple text and vivid illustrations explain how roads are built with cement mixers, dump trucks, bulldozers, and other vehicles used by the hardworking road crew to get the job done. Children's BOMC Main.

A wonderful book and a joy to read (over and over and over)!

I have twin 2.5 year-old boys and they love this book. Because of this book, when we are out driving around, they will tell me when they see a backhoe, a paver, or any other machinery they recognize. We read this book 3-4 times a day and it is new and exciting each time!

The perfect "all-boy" book for boys of all ages!

This is "The Favorite" book in our house! We first started reading this to our son when he was 2. Now he is 5 and still loves it. Our second son is now 2 and it is his favorite! The illustrations are the best around and the story is easy for kids to understand. We have learned about the different kinds of construction vehicles and what they do. The boys are able to name the different kids of trucks when they see them on the road. I have bought this books for many of my friends who have recently had baby boys so they can enjoy it to!

excellent book for boys who love "truck" toys

This was an excellent book. It is well written for the age group specified(4 - 8 yrs), although younger children would also enjoy it. The illustrations are remarkably well drawn, even to the detail of the model of machinery. The story reads easily and my son (who is 2 yrs old) really loved it. I will buy my own copy rather than go to the library all the time!
