Why read it?
1 author picked Digger, Dozer, Dumper as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is often called the “trash car book” in our house when searching for bedtime stories because it has his very favorite garbage truck illustration; he’s nearly worn that page out by turning to it. The descriptions for each vehicle are short and clever, which makes it very fun to read (and Mom didn’t know half these trucks, so it’s informative for me too!).
