Description

Say goodnight to each construction vehicle as it completes its last task of the day--especially to little dozer--in this sweet board book that puts a new spin on "Hush, Little Baby."

Push, little dozer,

clear the ground,

level out the rocky mound.

When you've flattened

smooth the land,

signal loader to the sand.

After finishing their job for the day, construction vehicles rumble off to sleep!
