"A digger with dreams ventures out on her own"
Morag Hood is known for her humour and bright, bold illustration style – making her a favourite with children and parents everywhere. This simple story is of a Digger who gets fed up with just digging downwards. She has somehow heard of something called ‘up’.
She leaves her digging down in the roadworks and sets off to find adventure in ‘up’. After various unsuccessful (and very funny) attempts to get up a way presents itself – and off she goes. This very simple, very funny book is a great way to start children thinking about whether they want to go on adventures – and to think about what might go wrong! Told in a gentle way – slowly Digger realises doing what she is really good at is the best way to get home.
A delightful, charming book, that will please children who love machinery – and the fact Digger is ‘she’ will make it equally appealing to boys and girls!
It is a day like any other at the roadworks when Digger decides she no longer likes digging down into mud, dark and worms - she wants to dig UP! Although up is quite tricky to get to, with some ingenuity and balloons, Digger goes off on a grand adventure.
