Construction Site

Great learning book for kids. Colourful, full of facts and well illustrated.

Brilliant books for exploring. So many different things to move and look under. My 4 year old loves them

I got this for my four year old for Christmas and it was a hit! The pages are full of things to interact with and lots of relevant information. I wouldn’t buy this book for a younger child as some of the moving bits can be delicate and you need to fold them back properly. I will be purchasing the other ones in the collection. It keep my son entertained in long car journeys.

Absolutely beautiful book - I studied and work in construction and my bright 6 year old is fascinated by this book, which is great. Usually reads and gets bored of picture books quickly. Loves all the interactive bits, beautifully and accurately illustrated, and lots of information on each page. Worth every penny and a good purchase for the budding engineer.

This is the best book I've seen! Bought it for my 4 year old sons birthday and he absolutely loves it! Book is very solid, super thick and have so many interactive parts! He loves everything related to construction and vehicles and planes and this is unbelievable! I've paid under £10 for it but it's well worth £30!!!

Great book! Some of the sliding parts need a bit of greasing to get them going. My 3& 1/2 year old loves it!

I got this book on the excuse of visiting children, but let's not - kid - ourselves - I'm a professional engineer in construction and this book makes me ridiculously happy. It covers soooooo many trades and finally gives a really good breakdown of how construction is an amazing sector and how much work is involved. I then got the other books in the series because it was so good. Know kids? Get the book. Know any grown ups in construction - get the book. Just like pop up books - you won't be disappointed. From unfolding mobile cranes to a tunnel boring machine, this has it ALL :) :) :)

My 21 months boy loves the book and he reads it everyday.

esta excelentemente hecho y a muy buen precio. Le encanta a mi sobrino mover las piezas, abrir las pestañas... le encantó

As the spouse and I are both construction workers we wanted to get the grandkids excited about construction too and this will be great. It's not one of those "ooh! ahh!" spectacular popups, but the flaps do hide fun secrets like a breakroom, winch, rats, little things. Often the layering is simply useful to illustrate the layers of the worksite or machinery rather than as art. And there are things like a load on a crane that you can slide into position. It's enough to keep a fidgetty kid engaged. The written stuff is explained simply enough for kids to follow and not get bored or confused, yet it is informative and very thorough, and as far as I can tell, accurate. It's not so wordy as to get overwhelming. The backgrounds are elaborate. As a female construction worker I was happy to see they did mix in some women. There's also diversity of age, race, mood, size and hairstyle. So you might do a Where's Waldo-esque thing like challenge your kid to find the guy with the grey mustache or whatnot. And some of the background people have a little story like one guy was digging with a backhoe iirc, and dug up a treasure chest lol! And I liked that one pic had background details showing how wildlife can be protected by planning the work wisely- there is a toad migration tunnel under a freeway iirc. So it's plenty entertaining just to look at the pictures It's the sort of book where you can sit with it for hours on a long car ride, or just look at it for ten minutes, and it will hit the spot. I think it will be enjoyable for many rereadings. The art is cheerful yet realistic. I really can't think of any negatives, it's a great book. But having not gifted it yet, I can't say for sure what kids think.

3歳の息子が数ヶ月も飽きずに一人で集中してみてくれます。動かしながら一緒に仕組みを考えてみたり、英語の勉強もできたり、たまに力を入れて壊してしまう箇所もありますが、高いけれどもとても良い買い物でした。

A really great book! My son absolutely love it

Great Fun Book with whole details. My son loved the book so much.
