Illustrated by
Richard Smythe.
After a busy day of road-building, it's time for the construction vehicles to sleep. While the rhyming text anthropomorphizes the big machines, the geometric images depict realistic construction scenes filled with brightly colored trucks and their human operators (a highlight: the foldout featuring all seven vehicles in action). Though the rhymes are slightly clunky, this bedtime book should appeal to fans of Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site.
