Dump Truck, Dump Truck Coming through! I spy a triangle-how about
you? It's no secret that toddlers of any gender love big vehicles.
Shape Up, Construction Trucks! uses rhyming verse and bright
photographs to celebrate this enthusiasm in a unique take on
conceptual shape books. Each spread highlights geometric shapes
hiding in plain sight on excavators, bulldozers, cranes, and more.
And after the toddlers have browsed the pages to their heart's
content, a final note to parents offers enriching, age-appropriate
activities to keep building their child's foundational learning
skills. With repetitive, easy-to-remember verse from the
award-winning author of Nat the Cat Can Sleep Like That, Victoria
Allenby's Shape Up, Construction Trucks! is a highly visual shape
book that digs deep. It earned starred reviews from School Library
Journal, which called it, "clear, crisp, clean, and concise," and
from Kirkus Reviews, which declared it was "sure to be a hit."
