Fans of cars, trains, and construction vehicles will love this
bedtime board book about a little bulldozer who won't go to sleep.
All kinds of vehicles take breaks, naps, and snoozes--but not
bulldozers! Dozers don't need to go to bed, at least that's what
the bulldozer who narrates this humorous book thinks. The
self-assured dozer brags that it doesn't need sleep, but gets
sleepier and sleepier as it lists all the other vehicles that do
need rest: race cars make pit stops, trains stop in their tracks,
tractors hit the hay, and more. The conclusion to Dozers Don't
Doze, in which the dozer ultimately dozes, will entertain little
ones and please parents; the illustrations of sleepy machines may
even lull children to sleep despite their own efforts to resist
dozing.
Diggers and Dumpers: This eight-page booklet with two illustrated
double-page spreads of kids' favorite trucks features three
fact-filled pages of informative text with space for stickers and
four pages crammed with over 60 self-adhesive color stickers.
Includes extra stickers to swap with friends or decorate books,
bags, and stationery.
