Customer Reviews

Great book, but you can get the "Harvey the Carpenter" instead

A really cool book to share with your children if you are a carpenter. The price is sky high though! The author has republished this book under "Harvey" series. Still in print and looks to be the same thing.

Bruno scores

My son, who is 2 1/2, absolutely loves this book. We actually followed the plans in the back and helped him build his own toolbox and he loved it! He memorized all the different tools Bruno uses and enjoys shouting out their names as we read the book. He also loves Bruno the Baker. Fantastic series of a Beaver that is very creative.

Intro to Woodshop for Preschoolers

My son, who just turned four, and had previously shown absolutely zero interest in shop tools, was fascinated by this book. He seemed to find the completion of the construction project especially satisfying. This book is really a sleeper and the main character is just adorable!

Excellent and educational for 21/2 years and up!

My 2 1/2 year old son has really enjoyed reading this book anytime. He likes tools and this has taught him what to use tools for. Everytime you read it you will notice something you missed before. The illistrations are adorable, detailed, and to the point. One of the better childrens books.
