Summary
Get ready for a ride through the alphabet at a busy construction site。 There's a big yellow Bulldozer， a tall shiny Crane， and a rusty red Dump truck—and the construction crew is hard at work。 But what are they building？
Melissa Iwai's bright， bold illustrations are a perfect match to June Sobel's irresistible rhyming text。 Join the excitement as the workers build， scoop， and dig their way from A to Z in this sturdy board book。

Fun to see all the parts to put together an amusement park and use the alphabet while building it。

Points that they use the correct names of construction equipment。 I just expected more construction words， and not as many basic （nail， zoom， la-boom， etc。）

Cute book！ My kids aren't obsessed with construction vehicles but they still like this and it's a fun way to work on the alphabet。 It's a nice bonus that the result of the construction is an adjustment park！ Cute book！ My kids aren't obsessed with construction vehicles but they still like this and it's a fun way to work on the alphabet。 It's a nice bonus that the result of the construction is an adjustment park！ 。。。more

This book does a phenomenal job of introducing the elements of a construction site with the correspondence of being an alphabet book。 With the use of the alphabet， children can be engaged in the story or a construction site while mastering the alphabet。 The letters for each alphabet word are clear as they are bolded and colorful。 In addition， June Sobel does a great job of combining alphabet words with machines or tools that go together on a construction site。 For example， she uses mallets for h This book does a phenomenal job of introducing the elements of a construction site with the correspondence of being an alphabet book。 With the use of the alphabet， children can be engaged in the story or a construction site while mastering the alphabet。 The letters for each alphabet word are clear as they are bolded and colorful。 In addition， June Sobel does a great job of combining alphabet words with machines or tools that go together on a construction site。 For example， she uses mallets for her M-word and nails for her N-word making the story flow smoothly。 The illustrations in the story are amazing。 They are filled with detail and really capture the alphabet words and their uses。 The illustrations also use lots of diversity when showing the people in the story。 The workers and people at the carnival are very diverse with their races， genders， and body types。 I thought this story was great although I did not give it 5 stars because I think it would not be the best book to teach a huge group or class the alphabet because of the construction theme。 。。。more

This book is sort of between your standard alphabet book and a story book。 Each letter is the focus of an object on the page but the words are directly incorporated into the story rather than an “A is for Apple” approach。 The story follows the construction of an amusement park。 One of my favorite things was watching the progress and the passage of time in the illustrations， which clearly change through the seasons。 It gives a nice sense of the long time you’d have to wait to see an amusement par This book is sort of between your standard alphabet book and a story book。 Each letter is the focus of an object on the page but the words are directly incorporated into the story rather than an “A is for Apple” approach。 The story follows the construction of an amusement park。 One of my favorite things was watching the progress and the passage of time in the illustrations， which clearly change through the seasons。 It gives a nice sense of the long time you’d have to wait to see an amusement park ride built。 It’s a favorite of my son and has been for years。 。。。more

I like that this alphabet book is not just a collection of things， but actually does have a gradual story that it builds to。

A rhyming book for all the little construction， big truck loving kids out there。 June Sobel runs through the A-B-Cs all while building the suspense。 What is it going to be？ Melissa Iwai's illustrations will appeal to the child and the child like。 A rhyming book for all the little construction， big truck loving kids out there。 June Sobel runs through the A-B-Cs all while building the suspense。 What is it going to be？ Melissa Iwai's illustrations will appeal to the child and the child like。 。。。more

Thought that "K" （ka-boom）， "X" （excitement）， and "Z" （zoom） were cheats。Liked the story of them building an amusement park。 Thought that "K" （ka-boom）， "X" （excitement）， and "Z" （zoom） were cheats。Liked the story of them building an amusement park。 。。。more

A colourful rhyming board book in which the reader is introduced to the construction of an amusement park - from A to Z。 （Note: for K the illustration is inaccurate if the workers are being responsible enough to avoid accidents。）

This alternates between some pretty construction-specific words and some words that really aren't construction-related at all。 I liked that the story was about building something specific （an amusement park）。 This alternates between some pretty construction-specific words and some words that really aren't construction-related at all。 I liked that the story was about building something specific （an amusement park）。 。。。more

Not bad Engaging for an individual childNot recommended for classrooms unless you have a lot of space- there are better alphabet books out there Illustrations were adequate but photos would have been better

Love how the words flow with the story of building a roller coaster。

Dr。 Hemm gave us this book at Benji's 18 month check up and it is a winner！ The simple text highlights the equipment and processes at any construction site， but the illustrations offer so much more！ The illustrations show a particular construction site throughout the seasons， and over the course of the book and entire amusement park is built - what fun！ Dr。 Hemm gave us this book at Benji's 18 month check up and it is a winner！ The simple text highlights the equipment and processes at any construction site， but the illustrations offer so much more！ The illustrations show a particular construction site throughout the seasons， and over the course of the book and entire amusement park is built - what fun！ 。。。more

Awards: No awardsRecommended grades: Pre-k through 1stSummary:This book is about the construction of a new amusement park。 The book introduces many different vocabulary words used in construction and within these words are a highlighted letter。 As you read through the book， you are reading each letter of the alphabet on each page。Review:This book is a great read for younger grades and preschool since it allows children to identify the letters of the alphabet in order within the words on each pag Awards: No awardsRecommended grades: Pre-k through 1stSummary:This book is about the construction of a new amusement park。 The book introduces many different vocabulary words used in construction and within these words are a highlighted letter。 As you read through the book， you are reading each letter of the alphabet on each page。Review:This book is a great read for younger grades and preschool since it allows children to identify the letters of the alphabet in order within the words on each page。 The text is minimal and the font is large and easier to read。 Overall， this book is great for students who are learning the alphabet or identify letters that make up words。 In Class Uses: Morning reading， lesson on the letters of the alphabet， lesson on identifying and sounding out the letters that make up a word。 Also， having students look in their environment with an adult and identify what letter of the alphabet that word starts with。 For example， looking at a stop sign and identifying the first letter of the word stop。 。。。more

My kids love this book。 Cute story using the alphabet about the construction of an amusement park。

This book showed the ABC and it turned into a book about building an amusement park。 This book also had a lot of rhyming in it。 This book would be good for pre schoolers or kindergarteners because it goes over the ABCs in the book and has good rhymes throughout the book。

This book uses words in construction in relation to the alphabet。 It keeps kids engaged the whole time when going through each page。 Kids can learn the alphabet from this book。 Kids could also learn about the types of jobs that are found in our society。 They could research a job and explain what they do in that field。

This book is an alphabet book based in a construction site。 I would use this book in a classroom of younger grades when focusing on the alphabet。 Kids could stop and write each letter as we encounter it or it could be used as an introduction to a lesson。

Another fun spin on a Alphabet learning book。 Each letter stands for an aspect of the construction world。 For example: I is for I-beam。 Constructing knowledge through a picture book and rhyming， would be fun for a construction theme， a rhyming unit， or alphabet learning。

This book is about the construction process of building an amusement park。 Along with showing the process it also points out the alphabet along the way。 This book is much different than standard alphabet books。 I would use this in the classroom to point out the alphabet and sound the letters along the way。

The political correctness is killing me。 How ridiculous！ There just aren't equal numbers of men and women on construction sites。 AND THAT'S OKAY。 The political correctness is killing me。 How ridiculous！ There just aren't equal numbers of men and women on construction sites。 AND THAT'S OKAY。 。。。more
