B Is for Bulldozer: A Construction ABC Review
Get ready for a ride through the alphabet at a busy construction site. There's a big yellow Bulldozer, a tall shiny Crane, a rusty red Dump truck--and the construction crew is hard at work. But what are they building? User Submitted B Is for Bulldozer: A Construction ABC ReviewsSeptember 7, 2008 Great book! A wonderful way to teach children the ABCs and to understand a story about how something is built. Several members of my family are in the architecture, engineering and construction fields, so this book is a great way to help my son learn more about his relatives' jobs. Great pictures, too! September 2, 2007 B is for lots of reading fun I got this book for my son who is in love with construction vehicles thinking it would be another way to teach the alphabet. The illustrations are terrific - lots of things to see, name and tell the color of. The story, while it rhymes, uses lots of words, not just the same simple ones over and over. (I didn't know it rhymed until I read it on my own without stopping to comment on every little thing on the page!) My son has since incorporated some of the "big" words from this book into his every day lexicon. July 30, 2007 Get this one! I cannot say enough good things about this wonderful book. This is my 19 month old son's favorite. I found this at a yard sale, and upon seeing it for the first time, my son said "OOOOOOOH!" and started flipping through the pages excitedly. The illustrations are soft and intersting to toddlers and even though it is an alphabet book, the story hold anticipation and facination. We love it! April 17, 2007 Fun book This is a fun book. My two-year old asks me to read this book to him all the time. February 20, 2007 Great illustrations! Super book My four year old loves all things construction. This book was perfect for him, both for the text and pictures. It captures common types of equipment, paired with great illustrations. I would definitely recommend. December 8, 2006 Looks great! I'm going to order this book for my truck-crazy niece and godsons! Wanted to point people to another favorite that's not linked here, called "Hush Little Digger," a version of the lullabye "Hush Little Baby," but all about construction trucks. It's a current favorite and a must for truck-loving kids. Fun to sing aloud! August 22, 2006 great ABC book I purchased this book for my preschool class. I haven't read it to the class yet but my soon-to-be step grandson loves it. It is one he wants read many times. It is a great way to get little boys interested in the alphabet. April 8, 2006 A delightful book! B Is for Bulldozer is not your average ABC book. Loaded with fun and avoiding the standard format, children recognize the alphabet that is intertwined in the lines, rather than starting them--without even knowing that they are in the process of learning. All while learning the names of big trucks and construction terms. Children watch as construction begins at the site. But what is being built? Anticipation builds for our little readers who start asking by page six, "What are they building, Mommy?" And they actually get to find out. By the second read, they know just when to join in and holler, "Z-O-O-M!!!!!!!" Read-aloud cadence is not intuitive, but quickly learned as my son will testify. Girls like it, but before you sit down with your young big-truck-loving boy, be prepared for, "Again!" And one "again" won't be enough. Armchair Interviews says: A delightful ABC book that also tells a story. December 22, 2005 good book This is a really fun book with great colorful illustrations. I like how the alphabet of construction "things" leads up to construction of an amusement park. I bought this for my friend's kid who loved it so much, the book had to be "lost" for a while. August 5, 2003 My Son's Favorite Book My 21-Month old son LOVES this book... he is fascinated by construction trucks and such and gets so very excited when we read it. It is very bright and colorful and gets his attention each and everytime. He loves pointing out everything and is always his first choice to read at bedtime! If your little one is as truck crazy as mine is, s/he'll love it! For more B Is for Bulldozer: A Construction ABC reviews click here.
