Kids would definitely laugh at Mikey's antics and have fun imagining themselves riding different kinds of construction vehicles. Kids would have a good time reading this book. Thank you for your review!

"The Day I Had a Bulldozer" by Ashley Wall. An interesting children's book talks about young boy named Luke, who noticed a bulldozer in his backyard, realizing that it could be of use for him. I think the excitement got him showing it to his friends. To his surprise his friends also had new machinery as his. The illustration of this book is awesome. A recommended book and a must read for children. Congrats on your #BOTD.

I love the fact that the author used colorful pictures and words. It definitely shows that it's a children's books. The fact that there is no conflict it just teaches the children that we do not have to fight everytime we could all enjoy nice things and have fun. Thanks for the awesome review.

This sounds super fun! I know my nephews would have loved this when they were kids. Too bad the author didn't explain the origin, though. Even if it's a simple children's book, I think kids need to learn this concept. Great review!

Thanks for the review. Kids love their toys, and having toys that are big enough to use can be such exhilarating fun for them. The idea of using construction equipment for kids is educative, as children may learn, in a fun way, what they are and how they are used.

Well, if I'm ever so fortunate to have a grandchild, this is the kind of book I'd buy for him or her. Terrific story. Great illustrations. And lots of eye-catching colors!

Thank you for the great review! This was an adorable book about Luke, who found a bulldozer in his backyard, immediately jumped on it, and rode away. His friends also found various equipment in their yards, and they all go on an adventure. I only hope that children will know it is only a story and don't try to ride a real-life bulldozer.

The review is a well constructed guide to the intersted readers. "The Day I Had a Bulldozer" by Ashley Wall is a wonderful children book. Luke, Bobo, Noah are all little heroes who take interest in construction equipments like my son. And their gifts are bigger than life in comparison to their age and size. Anyway that does not hinder their adventure and joy. This is a beautiful book with colourful illustrations.

This book, "The Day I Had a Bulldozer" by Ashley Wall is a fascinating read of a child finding a bulldozer in his yard one morning. After breakfast he goes out to start the bulldozer and then decides to go to his friend's house to show him his bulldozer only to find that his friend has a dump truck. He later learns that his other friends have a paver and an escalator. You will have to get this wonderful children's book to find out what these children get into. Great review by the way. Congratulations to the author for BOTD.

“The day I had a bulldozer “is a children’s book that had color pictures that’s makes a child anticipate whats next….Luke an ordinary child woke up and found out he and his friends had amazing machineries…
The joy alone they had would make a child reading smile.

It must be like a dream come true for boys to discover they suddenly had their own bulldozer, steamroller and other heavy equipment! I can just imagine what fun they would have and how much trouble they would get in. Thank you for the insightful review.
