PreS—This engaging board book features brightly colored paintings of the construction vehicles children love, with sound effects in blocky text. Excavators, forklifts, front loaders, and steamrollers "chug," "beep," "skwee," and "chumma hufft" their way through a busy day of digging. The book adds even more visual interest as the format changes from horizontal to vertical to accommodate tall apparatuses. Toddlers will enjoy joining in with the sounds of the vehicles and are sure to extend the fun with pretend play. An excellent addition to board book collections.—Martha Link Yesowitch, Charlotte Mecklenburg Library, NC
