We love this book in our house. Currently, it is the very favorite among my three year old daughter’s bedtime books. It features a good amount of predictability in the text built in- which is nice for preschoolers who like to chime in “Shhh…Goodnight, Crane Truck, goodnight.” etc etc. My daughter can pretty much recite the whole book, something she takes great delight in. The drawings are also charming, especially details that are not in the text – the crane truck holds a teddy bear, for example. I would gladly give this book 5 stars. Except.

Here’s my only problem with this book: it’s not just for boys. I feel pretty strongly about this- hence the use of multiple exclamation marks in the title of my review. I mentioned above I have a daughter. She’s three. She loves construction vehicles, adores watching them work in real life, and likes to read about them too. No one ever told her that construction is just for boys. Nor do I believe that anyone *should* tell her this! And so my husband and I were both quite disappointed that every single one of the construction vehicles in this book – a crane truck, a dump truck, a cement mixer, an excavator, and a bulldozer – is gendered as male. There seems no logical reason for this, other than it is widely believed that only boys like construction stuff and that the audience for this book is therefore only boys and boys can only relate to boy characters. Seems to me there is a failure at all these steps – some girls (and some boys!) like construction trucks, the audience for this book is not limited therefore to boys, and moreover, boys can relate to girl characters just as easily as anyone else, if they are allowed and encouraged to do so.
