I will add that, from Ben's mother's point of view, it has two more great things. That made the evening's reading of this book all the more exciting. Rally does is at the zoo, which we just went to yesterday. Rally does five different jobs, and at the end of each job, the text asks, "Is the digging done?" And Ben gets to shake his head as violently as possible and say, "NOOO!" Except for the last one, when he gets to say, "Yesh!" in that very-Ben way. Rally, wears a construction hat just like Ben wears! He has a cute dog, Lightning, who also likes to dig.It has a backhoe on every single page! Oh happy day!.It has all the different Ben components that, together, make it perfect for him, at 22-ish months: But what a great discovery we made with Andrea Zimmerman, and her husband David Clemesha! They have three sons, so their books are pretty wonderful for boys. Ben was spending some quality time jumping into the bean bag chairs, which are located right next to the very end of the alphabet of children's book authors. And we found this book while Ben and I were at the library last week. Yup, that's right, our construction-worker-wanna-be, Ben. This is a book that cannot fail to entertain and delight.Dig! by Andrea Zimmerman and David Clemesha, illustrated by Marc Rosenthal The wonderful pencil illustrations are vibrant and beautifully expressive, and the mistakes the animals make as they try to find snow are deliciously silly and funny. This hilarious picture book will have readers of all ages laughing out loud. Bear decides that he might as well stay awake to see the snow too. Unfortunately, Bear is trying to have a nap nearby and he cannot possibly sleep when Squirrel and Hedgehog are singing. There is nothing like a good song to keep one awake.
To keep awake, Hedgehog and Squirrel sing sea shanties.
Hedgehog decides that he too will stay awake to see the snow.
All the noise he makes running to and fro wakes up Hedgehog. Squirrel decides that he should run around to get some fresh air and exercise. What if he falls asleep and misses the snow? There is a problem though, the snow does not arrive straight away, and squirrel waits and waits. This year he is determined that he will get to see snow. Squirrel, who usually sleeps through winter, has no idea what snow is. Winter is on its way and Deer tells Squirrel that it will soon snow.
