Toolbox Twins by Lola M. Schaefer is a childrens picture book that is best for early childhood readers. The main characters in this book are Vincent and his dad.

The plot of the story is that Vincent and his dad both have matching toolboxes and they fix things around the house that are not working correctly.

Vincent and his daddy both have toolboxes. They use their hammers, awls, levels, saws, pliers and more to fix things around the house.
I read this to PreK when they were learning about tools. It's okay, but I probably won't borrow it from the public library next year. They liked Chris Monroe's picture book about Chico Bon Bon, Monkey with a Tool Belt, much better. (Who wouldn't?)

Another fun book by Lola Schaefer. Many students,especially boys can relate to this book and girls can boost about the person in their home who fixes everything. Thus, a self-to-text lesson would be great for this book.

It can be read in science when discussing simple machines

My son Loves this book! My husband is our Mr. Fix it, and our son loves helping him, so seeing this father/son fixing things around the house intrigues him. He likes that Vincent has his own toolbox and tools, just like his daddy. I like the use of the tools' names and sounds they make in the rhymes. My son likes to look at the pictures of the tools and see how they use them to fix things.
