Editorial Review

Booklist Review of Mighty, Mighty Construction Site

Cover: Mighty, Mighty Construction Site

Here is the rock-pounding, deep-digging sequel to the highly acclaimed Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site (2011). The five truck buddies (Crane Truck, Dump Truck, Cement Mixer, Bulldozer, and Excavator) wake up in the construction site. Newly delivered blueprints tell them they’re in for an enormous building job, much more than even this intrepid crew can handle. Cement Mixer’s series of blaring honks summons 10 other trucks to help. Construction-loving kids will adore the wealth of details about the roles of each. A nice touch is that two starring roles are given to female trucks (Skid Steer can break up rocks and maneuver in tight spaces; Flatbed can handle big loads of materials). Lichtenheld’s colorful wax-oil pastels burst with the trucks’ activity and make creative use of inset illustration panels. The rhyming text makes the plot as zippy as the trucks, all of which sport endearingly expressive headlights and grilles. While this covers much of the same ground as the first book, it drives home good lessons on hard work and teamwork.
