Anne and Harlow Rockwell's preschool classic still shines with a well-crafted simplicity that speaks to the desire young children feel to make something uniquely their own.
Look inside this well-loved toolbox-there is so much to discover! It holds strong wrenches that turn, pliers that pinch, and sandpaper that smoothes. There are nails, screws, and a hammer. A toolbox is a treasure trove for curious young builders. When they're not running to explore their own tool collections, children will be glued to this book, exploring the shapes, names, and useful jobs of common hand tools.
ANNE ROCKWELL and her late husband HARLOW ROCKWELL were inspired to make this book over 30 years ago by their son Oliver and his awe of his father's tools.
Anne is an acclaimed creator of innumerable children's books, including
Boats, Fire Engines, Things that Go, Our Earth, Here Comes the Night,and
My Preschool.Anne died in April, 2018.
