Stanley the Builder

It's another busy day for Stanley and friends on the construction site!

When Myrtle buys a plot of land, she asks her friend Stanley to build her a new house. He works step by step—from clearing the site with his orange bulldozer, to lifting beams with his green crane. Thankfully Stanley's buddy, Charlie, helps out, too!

Simple steps, accessible text, and brightly colored illustrations helpfully convey the construction process for toddlers who love equipment, tools, and vehicles. After a hard day at work, Stanley winds down his day with a familiar supper and bath routine that makes this series a great pick for bedtime reading!

William Bee's beloved Stanley series is a trusted model for basic preschool concepts like colors and shapes, kindness and teamwork, jobs and daily routines. Toddlers will love hanging out with this adorable cast of friendly neighborhood critters in any of the available series titles. Help your little one collect them all!
