SCOOP the Digger!

Author: David Wojtowycz

The fun begins with the endpapers in this book, where eye-catching tractors, fire engines, cement mixers and diggers are all personalised with a jolly smile. Bold, primary colours give a cheerful glow, whilst softer tones add to each page’s texture. On the building site, Scoop the digger boasts he can do ANYTHING. The picture shows him flexing his muscles, claiming all the other machines have easy jobs. Tipper the truck and Tumble the cement mixer let him try their jobs, as Scoop cries, ‘I’ll teach you a thing or two!’ and ‘Easy-peasy!’ Then Tumble the cement mixer says Scoop can have a go at HIS job… Lots of fun!
