Imagine an industrialized Lilliput. Imagine today. Imagine an enormous construction site. Imagine a birthday cake like no other.

What if the people you order your next birthday cake from are tiny and that they build cakes the way we build buildings? Tractor trailers and giant cranes, catwalks and helicopters. Hundreds of workers. Never have you seen such a construction site!

Reviews

"Kids will love searching for the one little guy who seems to trip himself up as often as toddlers do, and truck fans will naturally pore over every busy, action-filled scene."
     —The Horn Book

"This delightful picture book will be popular with fans of construction stories and makes a good choice for one-on-one sharing."
     —School Library Journal
