It's the Heavy Equipment for kids New readers as well as young ones to be read to will take a fascinating journey through the world of huge machines that build, demolish, dig, cut, drill and move... This description may be from another edition of this product.
One of my soon-to-be-nine-year-old nephew's first words was "backhoe," so I knew his abiding interest in heavy machinery would make this book of great interest to him! This colorful and informative book is listed as suitable for ages 9-12--I think it's for people of all ages. Even adults can learn from it (it's chock-full of information, and a lot of it I, at 39, didn't know!), and very small children would still enjoy being shown the pictures. The only complaint I have--and it's very mild--is, I wish this book had an index. It would be nice to be able to instantly find the various cranes, bulldozers, hydraulic excavators. But then again, maybe this is a good thing: the book is short and sweet, and paging through to find the exact giant machine you're looking for doesn't take long, and leads to a lot of interesting diversions!
