Review
After a long day of working hard on the construction site, these big and tough working trucks need
to sleep. Each truck has a different job and works the whole day through-- Crane Truck, Cement
Mixer, Dump Truck, Bulldozer, and Excavator. They build and make, clean, and fix all day long. Each
truck has a specific job they do and then it is time to turn off their engine and lay down to rest. Shh...
goodnight, construction site, good night.
This wonderful bedtime read is exactly what little kids can relate to at the end of the day. Each page
is educational and describes the different duties that each construction site truck has. While the
trucks are so big and so strong, they are just like kids and need to rest at night. This fun filled and
educational story teaches children the importance of working hard during the day and then going to
sleep at night. The illustrations are playful and fun with trucks that are alive and working. All little
kids will love this bedtime story.
