(A helpful closing spread identifies the vehicles and their capabilities.) The book's four scenes revolve around the building a home, expanding a road, and supplying a neighborhood with water and electricity; Latyk's crisp digital artwork leaves plenty of open space for children to fill with jackhammers, cranes, excavators, and their operators. A mix of questions (How do you think electricity gets into your house?) and construction details add some substance to the magnet-driven fun, while letting readers consider which tools are right for each job. Ages 3-5.
