(3) PS In this gentle message story à la Pixar's WALL-E, Digger befriends a flower as he builds with other construction trucks in a barren city lot. Although Digger cannot save the flower from city development, he rescues its seeds and plants them far away. The striking illustrations in muted grays use flashes of color effectively, especially on the final spread, a powerful image of nature's resilience.
