Simple, engaging, and beautifully illustrated! This book has very few words, making it perfect for little ones, while the gorgeous pictures bring the world of construction to life. My 1-year-old loved it, and I know my construction-working dad will enjoy reading it to her as well. A wonderful book for young truck and building enthusiasts!
Thank you Netgalley for the free ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Immediately put on my calendar to purchase when it's out. Each letter has a construction term—but not the boring ones that end up meaningless after the amount of repetition they get across books.
I highly highly recommend this book!
Thank you bunches to Cynthia Clumeck Muchnick, Familius and NetGalley for the DRC in exchange for my honest review!

So cute!! I work in Construction and just had a son and this will be the perfect book for him as he grows older. The illustration is great and the items sued are perfect for the construction field.

As a mom with a toddler obsessed with construction, this book gets our stamp of approval. It has darling illustrations and I really love what element of construction was chosen for each letter.

I absolutely loved this children’s book! It’s a perfect way to learn the ABCs with a fun construction theme. I’ll definitely be purchasing a copy for my son once it’s released!

My toddlers will love this when I buy the physical copy on June 30th!
A great little alphabet book tailored around construction terminology and equipment. It’s apparent that the selected terms were well thought out. A few prompted curiosity from my son which lead to learning. I will never not be happy when a book encourages my kids to seek knowledge! The illustrations were super cute.
I will recommend to any young construction enthusiasts (and their parents)!
Thank you Familius, NetGalley, and Cynthia Clumeck Muchnik for the ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.

My two year old son has been absolutely cherishing this book! It’s such a fun way to learn the ABCs with fun pictures and a fun theme So cute!

Simple and straightforward. I paged through with my 5yo and we discussed the words she didn't already know (I-beam, welder). I'm sure this will be appreciated by little ones.
Thank you for the ARC. I will purchase for my library.

Perfect for your little builder
This book tied in relevant construction terms with each corresponding letter of the alphabet. I could see this quickly becoming a staple book for many.
The illustrations clearly showed the word each letter stood for that made you feel like you were in an illustrated construction site.
This book would be a perfect gift for a blue-collar family or little one who like to ‘build things/play with tools’.
I received a copy of this book from Cynthia Clumeck Muchnick. I am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions are my own.

A delightfully engaging ABC primer for the construction site, featuring a clever selection of vehicles, tools, and terminology. The colourful illustrations and simple wording add to the brilliance of this book for the younger demographic.
My toddler particularly loved the H is for Hard Hat, J is for Jackhammer, Q is for Quarry and T is for Toolbelt. This book offers a fun way to engage in early letter sounds, through the theme of a construction site.
With thanks to Familius and NetGalley for the advanced reader copy, in exchange for an honest review.
This book would make a brilliant book for young children who are curious about building or construction.
