79. Ten Little Excavators


10 Little Excavators. Annie Bailey. Illustrated by Jeff Harter. 2022. 24 pages. [Source: Library]

First sentence: Ten little excavators wake up with the sun. Can't wait to work--Vrooom! Now it's time for fun. Ten little excavators digging up a line. One breaks a pipe--Sploosh! Now there are....nine. Nine little excavators--work is going great! One throws a track--Smack! Now there are....eight. 

Premise/plot: Want to count backwards with excavators? This is the board book for you. The story is kept to a minimum. There isn't much plot--just plain and simple subtraction.

My thoughts: Construction vehicles--in particular excavators--can be super popular with little ones. This is a concept book with construction vehicles. What you see is what you get.
