Big jobs are easier-and a lot more fun-when you work as a team!
Meet Pax, a high-energy golden puppy who loves nothing more than digging fast and messy in the playground sandbox. On the other side sits Cleo, a calm and clever calico kitten who loves taking her time to build neat, beautiful sand shapes. Both have grand plans for a perfect day of play. But their creative playground dreams hit a sudden roadblock when they notice a deep, wide plastic blue moat splitting the sandbox straight down the middle!
Determined to visit Cleo's side, Pax fills a heavy red bucket and tries to leap across the gap all by himself. Whoops! He slips mid-air, the bucket tips, and Pax tumbles right into the empty trench while sand splats everywhere.
Frustrated and stuck, Pax tries to frantically scoop loose sand to fill the hole alone, but it just slides right back down. Seeing her friend struggle, Cleo walks over with a warm smile and a brilliant plan. Realizing that Pax has the speed and she has the steady focus, she proposes they combine forces to build a sturdy green toy bridge instead!
Written in the active, engaging present tense, The Great Sandbox Bridge is a delightful picture book filled with bright, high-contrast, 3D preschool animation-style illustrations that will instantly lock in short toddler attention spans.
