But the introduction of gasoline, electric, and diesel shovels means big trouble for Mike and Mary Anne. (Ages 3 to 6). Mike Mulligan and his steam shovel Mary Anne make quite a team.

Forced to travel far out of the city to look for work, Mike and Mary Anne find themselves in the little town of Popperville. Hamilton's wonderful crayon drawings bring Mike and the indomitable Mary Anne to life. Will Mike and Mary Anne be able to complete the job? The whole town of Popperville turns out to watch.

Whenever people watched them dig, they always worked a little better and a little faster.Although it is somewhat dated, and even has Mike smoking at the end (you'd never see a responsible publisher do that today), it holds on to five stars.A.
