Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A boy delights in the discovery that diggers can dance!
When a young boy's grandmother tells him that diggers can dance, he wants to see the dancing in action! But the diggers stay parked in a row outside their window while it rains. As the boy and his grandmother wait for the skies to clear, they decide to bake together.
Using his imagination, the boy discovers that baking and diggers have a lot in common. He scoops and shovels sugar, digs in the dough, and soon the sun returns. He runs out to watch the diggers, and they really dodance: dipping low, lifting high, swinging, bending, and spinning!
This whimsical story gently enforces social-emotional learning concepts while spotlighting the joys of play. Watercolor illustrations bring the energetic, rhythmic text to life, making for a perfect read-aloud that will inspire kids to see their surroundings through a creative lens.
"Edited by Debbie Rogosin"--Page preceding title page.
"Grandma says that diggers dance... But it's raining, and the diggers across the street are sitting silently parked in a row. To fill time, the boy plows through his books, digs through his toy box, and scrapes, scoops, and dumps while making cookies with Grandma. But then the sky clears, and the construction site roars to life! Do the diggers dance? Dig in to find out."-- Front jacket flap.
