Lively verses about machines and the work they do. The rhythm of the words mimics the repetitive actions of the machines, as does the way they are laid out on the bright colourful pages. ‘Tractors are good at pull, pull, pulling, Ploughing up the field with a squelch, squelch, squelching.’ Poetry in motion!
