Themes: Building/ Onomatopoeic words
Out on the building site the workers in yellow overalls are
thonking and clonking
and clapping/ binging and banging and bonging until they raise the roof, switch on the power and
fill the rooms with shelves and tables and chairs. What have they built? Why a
LIBRARY of course. This is a wonderfully exuberant book both in language and
image not only to delight the children who listen and look and join in but
those who share it with them. And
like the building that has been constructed, this is a good sturdy book which
will stand up to the predicted heavy use it will receive.
Recommended.
