K-3I Like to Read series.
Told from the perspective of a screw living in a garage full of tools, this book uses simple words and short sentences to introduce tool purposes and tell the story of a boy building a treehouse. The personification of the tools is somewhat uneven, but the functional descriptions are clear. Bright digital illustrations follow the progress of the project and give the objects personalities.
