PRESCHOOL
(3) PS Illustrated by Marc Rosenthal. Like a caffeinated Mike Mulligan, backhoe driver Mr. Rally, accompanied by his dog Lightning, completes not one but "five big digging jobs" in a single day. Friendly retro-looking cartoons and a spirited, rhyming text ("Dig up rock and dig up clay! / Dig up dirt and dig all day!") take Mr. Rally through his day digging "the drain for the rain," "the pool at the school," and so on.
