 Even parents will learn something new November 23, 1999

Working Hard with the Mighty Crane, as with the rest of the series, is informative yet interesting. It has made a relatively "dry" subject surprisingly appetising and makes you want to learn more. Should be of interest not only to little boys. Even parents will learn something new in reading the book to kids.
 A complete miss!!! January 14, 2003

This book attempts to explain the function of a mobile crane by comparing it to a live crane, fishing, and bowling. If you are using a metaphor to teach something, you'd better make sure that the student knows what the metaphor is. Most children aged 4 or less have never seen a live crane (bird), have never gone fishing and may not have gone bowling. It's a complete miss.The truth is that there is no need to explain how the crane works. This kids get it. What they need to know and love are the details. A complete miss!
