Watch a series of amazing construction vehicles-a dump truck, a bulldozer, and many others-build a building unlike any other. Then delight in the surprise ending, where young readers and listeners can see that the trucks are actually toys a little boy is playing with! Bulldozers, dump trucks, and cranes are just a few of the vehicles working together to build something incredible. The payloader makes the hole for the foundation (""DIG""), the semi-loader brings in the huge blocks (""HAUL""), and the crane lifts them up (""HOIST""). But is this a real construction site, or a boy's backyard filled with toys? Here is an ingenious book that showcases all kinds of trucks and celebrates the joy of imaginative play. But it is also a marvel of ingenuity on the part of Red Nose Studio, who hand-built each vehicle, then photographed his 3-D creations.
