Dugger! Dugger! Dugger! What's that noise? Little Dalmatian is about to find out as he follows the booming noises of big construction vehicles in this energetic picture book.
"...truck fans charmed by the puppy's idyllic adventure will probably enjoy the final scene as much as the truck sounds they've been imitating along the way. A cheerful picture book for kids whose heroes wear hard hats."
Booklist Online
"The patterned text uses the machines' sounds as a predictive device, with a dramatic page turn to reveal the next animal and corresponding construction equipment. Bold, movement-filled illustrations create a buoyant atmosphere, with jaunty animal characters and bright flowers and trees surrounding the construction site. . . .Preschoolers enamored with construction equipment will enjoy this cheerful tale, which is simple enough for little ones just transitioning into real stories."
Kirkus Reviews
"The use of alliteration and onomatopoeia ("Brmmm! Brmmm! Wheee!") makes the text delightful to read. . . .The illustrations will keep kids excited to see who is doing what silly thing on the next page. As a bonus, Dalmatian's friend Little Mouse is hiding throughout the book for readers to find. A natural pick for storytime read-alouds."
