Machines at Work
is another one of Byron Barton's books that our family loves. Like all Barton books, Machines at Work features bold and simple full-page illustrations with bright colors and straightforward, simple phrases. Machines at Work is dedicated to construction equipment -- it's filled with bulldozers, steamrollers, cranes, excavators, dump trucks and a crew of male and female workers that put in a hard day's work building a building, from demolition to construction. At first I loved Barton's Trains
more, and so did my kids, but Machines at Work will now always have a special place in my heart because my two-year-old started repeating the phrases after I would read to him, and hearing my little peanut say things like "Build that building" and "Dump that rubble" in the sweetest little child voice was heart-melting. I'm going to remember it every time I see this book.

Our family has this in the hardcover format, it is also available as a board book.
