Review: Dazzling Diggers


Dazzling Diggers
Written by Tony Mitton
Illustrated by Ant Parker

Publication Date:1997
Publisher: Kingfisher
ISBN: 978-0-7534-5304-9

Summary/back cover:
“Diggers are noisy,
strong, and big.
Diggers can carry
and push and dig.”

Be dazzled by the diggers and their daffy animal drivers in this bright and bouncy picture book. Zippy wordplay, zappy art, plus a helpful picture dictionary make learning about machines fun!

Review:
Here is yet another book from the Amazing Machines series. I don’t know how the author and illustrator managed to make a whole book about diggers and write about them so that pre-schoolers can understand, but they succeeded! My children now know that diggers can have wheels or tracks and be driven with levers or steering wheels.

Like the other Amazing Machines books we have at our house, Dazzling Diggers is a favourite of my children. If your children love big machines, they’ll no doubt love this book, too.

My rating: 4.5 out of 5
