In Diggers, emergent readers will learn about the parts and functions of an excavator. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage early readers as they discover how a digger digs, lifts, dumps, and moves to help do big jobs. A labeled diagram helps readers identify different parts of a digger, while a picture glossary reinforces new vocabulary. Children can learn more about diggers online using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Diggers also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, and an index. Diggers is part of Jump!'s Construction Zone series.

      PreS-Gr 1-This addition to the imprint is ideal for readers who love big construction site behemoths. Bright, vivid photos illustrate the basic text, allowing readers to use context clues to decipher more difficult words. Images of bright orange mixers pouring concrete and rollers smoothing asphalt road surfaces coordinate perfectly with the phrases on the page. In fact, the limited text and illustrative photos make this series perfect for use in circle and storytimes, giving them extended use for educators. The glossy photos allow readers and listeners alike to appreciate the full size and scope of the gigantic cranes, bulldozers, and diggers. Each book concludes with a simplified, labeled picture of its highlighted vehicle and a photo glossary. Filled with repetition of key words and basic text, this series is perfect for evolving readers. VERDICT A first purchase for school and public libraries alike.
