Say goodnight the fun way with this lovable construction crew.

Over in the big construction site, Crane Truck, Cement Mixer, Dump Truck, Bulldozer and Excavator are working hard on their next project. But when the sun goes down, it's time for these big trucks to finish their work, dim their headlights, cut their engines and start getting ready to go to sleep...

If you have a construction-obsessed kid in your house, then this book would be perfect for them. There are three books in total in this series, and this one is the first.

Told in gentle rhyming style, kids will enjoy seeing how each of the different trucks has its own routine when getting ready for bed.

Of course, there's still time for a bit of construction fun before turning in for the night, with lots of fun sound effects for kids to enjoy too, like the roar of Bulldozer's engine as he works to clear the ground.

And when it's finally time to go to sleep, kids will enjoy seeing the funny bedtime details for each truck, like the star-shaped night light hanging off Crane Truck's hook.

Overall, this is a fun and relaxing rhyming story, and a perfect bedtime choice for your own little builders.
