Description
There's a lot of building going on in Playtown: Construction, a Lift-the-Flap book from bestselling children's book author Roger Priddy!
There is so much to explore, learn, and discover inside this busy, busy book - diggers are digging holes, materials are being delivered, and roads are being laid.
Children get their curiosity going with over 70 flaps to lift which reveal cross-sections of different scenes. Different jobs in construction are revealed as kids learn what each person, place, and piece of equipment contributes to a construction site!
On every page, there are fun flaps to lift which tell children more about the picture above, and at the back of the book is a big page to fold out that reveals a bustling construction scene.
