Learn about excavators, rollers, trucks, cranes, and loaders in this original book of more than a dozen heavy vehicles. And enjoy all the animals along for the ride.

When Cow wants to give a concert, she transports her piano with a telescopic crane. When Duck and Hen compete over who has the neatest lawn, hand mower leads to lawn mower to combine harvester—that ends the discussion! And what do rhinos like to make in their cement mixer? Pancakes, of course, and here's the recipe (beware, you'll need 32,304 eggs).

This entertaining picture book combines funny stories with a perennially popular topic. Explore details about engine size and vehicle weight, enjoy flights of fancy in a gyrocopter or cherrypicker, and end the book with a modern fairytale about a tractor that lives happily ever after.

Reviews for Diggers, Dozers, and Dumpers

""This book is perfect for shared story hours, and will have children imagining their own fields of play and the equipment they might need. . . What a joyful way to impart information, complete with a female-heavy group of workers, and make children rethink what they know about tools.""—School Library Journal
