These diggers and the construction workers who drive them are hard at
work on a busy day of building! The My Big Wimmelbooks series is an
effortless introduction to literacy that lets beginning readers ages 2
to 5 be the storyteller--with hours of seek-and-find hands-on
learning.
In these oversize board books, every page is bursting with life--and
tons to discover! Children as young as age 2 have a blast pointing out
recognizable things--a blue tricycle, a hungry dog, a piggyback
ride--while older kids can follow the star characters through all kinds
of bustling scenes.
Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids to make their
own way through the busy Wimmelworld they encounter--and to craft their
own stories. First, they're introduced to a unique cast of characters
who are hidden in plain sight on the pages that follow. As children seek
them out, each character's storyline unfolds, but it's up to kids to
interpret the scenes and create stories they think fit. It's hours upon
hours of fun--and an effortless introduction to literacy, to boot.
My Big Wimmelbook--Diggers at Work! is packed with digging machines of
all kinds tearing down buildings, shoveling dirt, and moving scrap.
Children can follow a cast of hard workers across construction sites
from a neighborhood to a city to a pond and more. There's also a spread
of digger diagrams with simple labels so curious kids can learn to point
out parts like the bucket, cab, and engine.
About Wimmelbooks
Wimmelbooks originated in Germany decades ago and have become a
worldwide sensation with children (and adults!) everywhere. My Big
Wimmelbooks is the first-ever English-language Wimmelbook series. Its
books have been praised as "lively . . . and abounding with humor and
detail" (WSJ) and likely to "make any parent's heart sing" (NYT).
