Critics Review

Praise for Bulldozer’s Big Rescue: An Amazon Best Book of the Month A CCBC Choice

★ “Broach and Murphy rev up for a promising new series starring a lonely anthropomorphic construction vehicle…. Bulldozer’s monologue and the characters’ dialogue are spot-on, beautifully conveying the protagonist’s doubts and fears, irritations and resentments, hopes and wishes, and pride at stepping out of his comfort zone…. An enthralling tale about doing the heavy lifting of making friends.”–Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“A touching story of overcoming social fears, perfect for early chapter book readers or those younger to read with a loved one.”

–School Library Journal

“Bulldozer is a fully fleshed-out character; young readers will relate to his fears and conflicting desires to appease others and stand up for himself. This sweetly simple story…addresses sometimes-challenging issues surrounding meeting new people with a light and understanding touch, and expressive b&w line drawings with muted orange accents…bring Bulldozer and his world to life.”

–Publishers Weekly
