I love this book and I feel like a construction expert. My son and I are constantly recognizing the different construction equipment we see when we're out on the road! This is a great book and the author did a great job researching each item. Love it!

My son is only 14 months old. This is the book he picks first every night. His dad loves teaching him all the noises the machines make.

No wonder it is often backordered, it is one of the absolute favorites in our house!

My 2 1/2 year old son and I both enjoy reading this book. He loves the sound effects. I always think the end is a little strange; almost starting over again, but the book in general is pretty good and informative.

My two year old son LOVES this book! Not only has it helped him learn his ABCs, if you ask him "What does "H, I, J, K" stand for?", he will enthusiastically shout "Horizontal Borer, Impact Hammer, Jack Hammer, Knuckleboom Loader!" which always causes a laugh! He can now name nearly every piece of heavy equipment on a job site and I've learned more about construction than I thought I needed to know! The pictures are superb and the descriptions are very age appropriate. An essential book for your child's library.
