Overview
Little vehicle-lovers will be hooked by this rumbling, roaring eight-book collection from Sally Sutton and illustrator Brian Lovelock. Packed with diggers, dumpers, cranes, ambulances and aeroplanes, each rhyming picture book turns noisy machinery into irresistible read-aloud fun. Bold artwork and satisfying sound-word rhythms fill every page, making this set perfect for storytime, bedtime and anywhere little hands reach for a book about big machines.
About the Books
This eight-book paperback collection brings together Sally Sutton's much-loved rhyming picture books, brought vividly to life by Brian Lovelock's bold, energetic illustrations. In Construction, a crew raises a new library amid thumping, clanking sound effects. Demolition reverses the action as giant machines crash and clear the way for something new. Dig, Dump, Roll follows diggers and rollers preparing ground for a school, while AMBULANCE AMBULANCE! offers a reassuring look at paramedics racing to help an injured child. Roadworks tracks a road being built from first dig to final surface, and Wheels celebrates every kind of wheeled vehicle, from tractors to zippy cars. Tractor heads to the farm for ploughing and harvesting fun, and Catch That Plane! takes the action skyward with a race to board a flight. Every book shares the same winning formula: short, rhythmic, shout-aloud text full of sound words, paired with detailed, action-packed spreads that reward repeat readings. Several titles include a simple pictorial glossary naming the machines on the page, adding a gentle, informative layer for curious young engineers. Together, the set offers hours of varied, engaging read-aloud material that grows with a child's expanding vocabulary, making it an ideal first "vehicle library" for home or classroom use.
