Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreS-Gr 1-Rinker is back with her construction vehicles prepping for the holidays. The rhyming text follows how the machines work hard to construct a "special house" that must be ready for Christmas Eve. Each machine is allotted three or four pages to describe their work, before being given a gift (Bulldozer gets a new carbon steel blade), and then bidden Merry Christmas and Goodnight. Once Crane finishes the job by topping the construction with a star, new fire trucks and rescue vehicles roll in, and readers realize what has been built: a new fire station. As usual, these happy trucks are anthropomorphized just enough to appeal to kids. The neocolor wax oil crayon illustrations offer bright colors and scenes that are engaging without being overwhelming, ending with peaceful, snowy scenes. Although this is a bit lengthy for toddler audiences, children will love shouting out the names of the vehicles and the parts they are gifted, as well as guessing what they're creating. VERDICT Rinker's popularity makes this holiday title a first purchase for all public libraries. It's perfect for one-on-one and small group sharing.-Liz Anderson, DC Public Libraryα(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

Christmas Magic - This is a Must Have!

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2018

Verified Purchase

Oh my goodness, this one is going to be a classic - just like the original! The illustrations and rhythmic text are just as great as the original, but whereas the original is a more simple book about working hard and going to sleep, this one has more of a storyline in that all the construction vehicles are building a new home for the fire engines - How cute is that?! Truly, this should be part of your home collection. I bought it for my kids even though they're older now - they're 6 and 8 and I know they'll still be THRILLED when the "book fairy" leaves this in their bedroom one night this in December.

My son is almost two and love the Construction Site books. We have the other two, but this one was not very good. I would pass. There really isn't reference to Christmas, a tree, Jesus, Santa, nothing....they get gifts for their worn out parts but that's it.

So much fun!

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2019

I got this last year for my then 3-year-old, construction-obsessed boy and he loves it still, a year later. I put it away after Christmas and pulled it out again after Halloween to read for the season this year. This is actually one of my all-time favorite children’s books. I choose it for our reading time even more often than my son does! So essentially we read it every day and it doesn’t get tiresome at all. It is a fun story that progresses through the building of the site (you do have to suspend believe since they build the whole thing in a day, but hey, it’s fiction), the rhymes are fun and roll off the tongue while at the same time it’s easy to follow the story. The rhymes don’t get in the way at all. The illustrations are charming, and the ending is fun and sweet. This book hits it out of the park for children and the adults who read it to them. It also has a strong “book smell” because of all the ink on the pages, so that’s a bonus! We love “book smell,” lol.

Great book, great series--he keeps picking it

Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2018

Verified Purchase

I got this for my 2-year-old nephew (now three), and he asks for it to be read constantly. He is an avid "reader" and has about 200 books to choose from, and chooses this series over and over. I've gotten him all three, and they are one of his favorites.

And I actually like reading them to him, too, which is a big plus. I'm impressed by many of the books, but some are really lame and phoning it in. Since "again" is the favorite word of all my nieces and nephews, you know you're going to be reading it a lot. I appreciate the ones that are easy on me as well.

It also helps that the drawings are great, and look just like all his toys--and the real thing in the new building going up near me that we facetime about several times a week.

LOVE all of this series!!!

Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2019

It's adorable how much not only my almost-2-year-old son loves these books, but our whole family! We have the board book of Good Night, Good Night Construction Site, the hardback Mighty, Mighty Construction Site, the way-too-cute stuffed Excavator, and now this! And it's as charming and fun to read as the others. Each construction vehicle finds a gift just for them which makes their Christmas very special after working so hard to get a new "home" for the fire trucks built by Christmas Eve. Highly recommend! This author and illustrator duo is great!

We also have the Good Night, Good Night Construction site book. This one is a lot like that one. The pictures are very similar. My only complaint is that I wish it would’ve been a little bit brighter on the Christmas tree, because the pictures are not very bright. My grandson does love anything construction so he loves it. I bought this on a buy two get one free. If I hadn’t got a discount I don’t know that I would pay full price. It is a big full-size book so it will definitely last.

Trucks and Such on Christmas Night

Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2018

Verified Purchase

I knew this would be perfect for my 4 year old great nephew. I bought it, and it was perfect. My sister and I were talking about what we had each bought for the 4 year old. She said she had bought the best book. It was this one. We had both thought this the perfect book for our grandnephew. Next day I get photos of the gifts for each of the piñatas from my nephew, the piñata gift giver. One picture, the one for the 4 year old's piñata, caught my eye. In the pile was this book, a third copy for the 4 year old. This is a great book filled with trucks and all sorts of machines each of which receives a gift on Christmas Eve.

Good, but not as good as Mighty Mighty or Goodnight Construction Site

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2019

Verified Purchase

Different artist than the previous ones and feels like the rhymes aren't as good (even though same author). Mighty Mighty Construction Site feels like the strongest of the series from our sons reaction. This one is still fine for a Christmas-themed construction read.

Gripped me right away from the explosive opening scene to the shocking denouncement at the finale. I'll be up in arms if this gets adapted by Hollywood and anyone but Anthony Hopkins is selected for the nuanced role of tractor.

My grandson, age 3, LOVES construction sites, and always wants to go there so we can watch what's going on from behind the fence! So he was very pleased with this book, and so were his parents.

Not as good as the previous books in the series, but the kids love it. Illustrations are beautiful as usual. Nice to have another christmas book in the library.

If you like this look for the others in the series too. Goodnight Goodnight construction site. And Mighty Mighty Construction Site.
