"This is all about as good as it gets for truck-obsessed preschoolers." -- The Horn Book (starred review)


From the huge crane with a swinging ball (crack!) to the toothy jaws that ram the walls (thwack!), this rambunctious demolition, reverberating with sound words, is guaranteed to have small kids rapt. Bright spreads showcase the gargantuan machines in all their glory.
