Digger Dog

A lively, persistent pup spends its days unearthing bones, and the larger the find, the better. When it sets its sights on the largest bone anywhere, it realises it will need the largest digging machine in the world. Each page brings a bigger excavator and a deeper pit, building toward a fold-out reveal near the close.

Written for pre-schoolers, the book has a clear appeal to young boys who love machines. Its short, repeated phrasing is easy to chant, so it works well when read aloud over and over, and it is expected to become a favourite at bedtime.
