As the mother of a 2 1/2 year old who is obsessed with anything with wheels, this was a must have. We had borrowed it from our local library, and once we returned it, he asked for it so frequently that I purchased it for him. It remains one of his favorites!

Illustrations are sweet and simple, and the text is simple as well. Nothing fancy, just perfect for a toddler.

Love this book as do my kids. Boys love diggers, but my daughter loves this book too. Simple to understand and the big brother wants to teach his little brother to be a Digger Man too! I gave this as a gift in conjunction with a "digger" toy and everytime my son plays with it, he also wants to read this book.

My 2 year old son is fascinated with this book. He finishes the sentences on each page as we read it to him. It was one of his first non-board books. We place it on a shelf along with other "fragile" books and the "place of honor" makes it seem extra special to him - so he is very careful with it.

My older son loved this book and now it has become the favorite of my younger son who is now 3. We have it memorized because for awhile there we were reading it every night. It is sweet. It is imaginative. It is all boy! It's wonderful!

We got this book at the library and my 3 year old boy loved it nearly to pieces. I am looking into getting one he can keep, or maybe giving the library the new one and having him keep the torn and taped one! He has it memorized and "reads" it over and over to himself and his little sister. This book not only fascinates the little "digger men" that like to read it, but also teaches values such as hard work, good maintenance,productivity, and taking care of little brother. Your own little "digger man" will be sure to love it.
