D Is for Dump Truck: A Construction Alphabet

32 pp. | Sleeping Bear | October, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-58536-975-1 $16.99
(4) PS Illustrated by Kent Culotta. With ready-made appeal for machine and tool lovers, this alphabet book shows a construction crew helping a family build an elaborate treehouse. Each letter introduces a tool or construction step with two rhyming couplets. Despite singsong tendencies, the text maintains alphabetic integrity without losing the work's flow. Soft-toned illustrations with rounded edges and smiling workers underscore the book's friendly vibe. Glos.
