Book details
A Day with the Animal Builders
Description
The penguins' dream home is going to be amazing, with an ice rink,
a helter-skelter and a swimming pool on the roof.
However, the animal builders' apprentice, Donkey, is turning out
to be a bit of a disaster. His bricklaying is a mess; he's a positive
danger behind the wheel of a dumper truck, and his plumbing
is a catastrophe.
But who saves the day when a runaway bulldozer threatens to flatten
all the builders' hard work? Donkey does! So that's what Donkey's
good at: being super-strong!
