Read the whole series!
From clearing a pathway (SCREEK!) to rolling the tar (SQUELCH!) to sweeping up at the end (SWISH!), there are many big machines little ones will love to build with! From the huge crane with a swinging ball (crack!) to the toothy jaws that ram the walls (thwack!), this demolition is perfect for young ones who love things that go! Also available in Spanish! Thonk! Clonk! Clap! We’re back at the construction site, where big machines and busy workers dig, hoist, and hammer away. Diggers, dump trucks, rollers, and more — it takes a lot of big, noisy machines to build a school! A motorcycle has just zoomed by, and now a woman in front of the hotel is waving at something. What could it be? The plow that cuts the earth, the seed drill that plants the seeds, the dump cart that brings the tasty load to the truck—there’s plenty of noisy excitement that happens on a farm!
