The book's theme is too light for my taste. I'd prefer to skip it. Nevertheless, I'm confident that children would thoroughly enjoy reading it.

This book looks like a terrific way to spark a child's imagination because it gives them ideas like operating big machinery or making something. It's incredible how these stories affect children.
Great review!!!

You have done a fairly good job. However, your review does not detail the quality of the story or the character development. It is a children's book and the illustrations are important but I think it would also be valuable to know about the narrative behind the illustrations, don't you think?

Today's book of the day is a children's book with beautiful illustrations and a captivating storyline. I think readers would learn about these heavy machinery and what they are used for. Congrats on #BOTD!

Most of children dream of doing adult stuff, and the book seems to show it in a so natural way that it doesn't feel forced. On the contrary, it is a funny combination that can atract kids and adults likewise. Thanks for the great review!!

Children do love playing with toy cars and trucks. The only problem I do have with this book is the message it could convey with children operating heavy machinery. Their has been stories in the media that children as young as 10 has stolen their parents car keys and drove around.

A very cute book for young children beginning to read and apt for kids who are fascinated by construction equipment. It's a quick read with really good illustrations. I wonder if this was Luke's dream. I loved the end where they're expecting a dinosaur to show up the next day! Interesting series by the author!
