Little Factory

by Sarah Weeks, Michael Abbott, Byron Barton (Illustrator)

There was a little man who ran a little factory. But as the factory grows bigger and bigger, the little workers begin to cough and choke on the smoke from the factory chimneys. It's up to the little man to save the day. This one-of-a-kind picture book with CD-ROM keeps the little factory humming with an animated song kids will love to sing, playable on both Macs and PCs.
