At the beginning, a two-page illustration opens up to reveal a building site. Turn the page and see the big machines move in - one by one - and get to work See the demolition truck knocking down an abandoned building, a bulldozer clearing the site, and a dump truck taking the rubble away. And so we watch as a new building takes shape, until a gatefold opens to reveal the apartment building completed.

Accompanying the narrative text are lots of fun details to look out for in each scene - from a bird building its nest to a mischievous squirrel hiding nuts in the cement mixer Turn to the gatefold - all the big machines are driving off - their work is done
