Synopsis
One day Little Green rolls into town and says his first word: "Go!" The town is building a bridge, and now everyone has a job to do, from dump truck to forklift. Little Green helps them do their jobs with gusto. Until . . . there is a little too much gusto. They can go, go, go . . . but how will they stop?
This bright, fun book with a bold package captures the endless energy of little boys and the timeless appeal of trucks and machines--both for building and knocking down. Plus, it has an underlying message about working together to get things done.

From School Library Journal
PreS-K—Little Green, so named because he is a little green ball, knows one word, and he is excited to share it. "Go!" he yells as he bounces into the town's construction site. Hearing the cries, the bulldozer wakes up first, and soon the cement mixer, the hauler, the tow truck, and all the other heavy equipment are up and working on a new bridge. The more Little Green shouts, the faster everyone moves. But too much "Go, go, go!" is not a good thing. The trucks are now working too fast to do their jobs properly. Just then, in rolls Little Red, who yells "Stop!" The momentary pause allows everyone to reorganize, but since Little Red and Little Green are exact opposites, confusion still reigns. After much trial and error, they find the perfect blend of "Stop" and "Go" to finish the bridge on time. Everyone is happy, and then Little Yellow comes to town. His message is "Slow down," which are the "perfect words for a busy bridge." The town will surely live happily ever after. The artwork is a mixture of collage and digitally rendered cartoons; the colorful equipment is anthropomorphized and drawn in a childlike hand. The plot is rather simple, but young construction enthusiasts will likely take to the bright illustrations.—Roxanne Burg, Orange County Public Library, CA
