Giles Andrea does it again. This time with trucks and diggers. Daughter and I were discussing our favourite truck at the end of this fun rhyme book.

This picture book features a medley of exciting vehicles for children to explore, from steam rollers and dumper trucks to ambulances and cranes.

Each colourful double-page spread is dedicated to a different vehicle, with an accompanying rhyme to describe its appearance and purpose.

Ideal to promote discussion about the structure and function of a range of vehicles, it is perfect for children who are beginning to explore the world around them. The rhythmic text is accompanied by bright, bold illustrations, which fill every page, creating a lively book which will be treasured by any toddler who is 'mad about trucks and diggers'.

This is a brilliantly illustrated very big book about trucks and diggers, with a great little rhyme for each type of machine.
A very enticing book for little ones who are literally mad about trucks and diggers!
