Beautiful gift book. See all the huge and bright colored equipment that it takes to build roads.The engineer studies blueprints on building a park and the roads involved.You can help him. Trees must be cleared and taken to a paper mill with logging trucks and cranes. THe engineer is on site to guide the building of the new park with blue prints. The road must be made flat with dynamite. Bulldozers are used to fatten the road. Then a loader picks up the extra dirt and puts it into a dump truck. This is a fascinating learning book to teach a child about how huge equipment is used in our world.

In Hudson, Ohio there is a Caterpillar plant that displays huge earth moving equipment in front of the factory. That type of equipment is found in this book. This is a great learning resource.
