PreS. There can never be enough truck books for some preschoolers, and those who feel that way are sure to love this one--for the sound and rhythm of the words as well as clear, brightly colored pictures of machines in action. As a boy and his mom watch the activity at a building site, the child hears the pounding of the huge machines. Digger goes "Grrr-clank! Grr-clank! Grrr-clank-clank!"; "Flatbed backs and grunts, then backs and grunts some more"; Cement Mixer rumbles and grumbles. The workmen are Digger's helpers, and the pictures show them climbing and clanging, welding and hammering. When all the work is done, there is a new community center for everyone. After a read-aloud, toddlers will want to play out the construction action again and again.
Re-issued with colored covers, the bright illustrations and cheerful text that fill the pages of these die-cut board books will appeal to any toddler ready for these basic concepts-numbers, shapes, colors and new words.

Lester's thoughtful preface to his retelling of the Joel Chandler Harris folktales elucidates the problems inherent in a project of this sort,which,unfortunately,this volume does not entirely resolve.Harris's stories are told in the Gullah dialect,often thought difficult by modern readers.In an attempt to preserve the tales,Lester has rewritten them in his own voice,often with references to"things that are decidedly contemporary,like shopping malls."Lester calls such references characteristic of black storytelling and admits they may be jarring.But his retelling is uneven.For example,in the same story the narrator tells us formally,"Early one morning,even before Sister Moon had put on her negligee,Brer Fox was up and moving around,"and then says in dialect,"Brer rabbit was sho'nuf'mad now."Harris's Brer Rabbit comes"pacin'down de roadlippity-clippity,clippity-lippitydez as sassy ez a jay-bird"while Lester's comes"strutting along like he owned the world."This collection is important as a way of introducing rea
