  • 本書介紹
19世紀的年代，麥可先生和他心愛的蒸氣挖掘機瑪莉一起做了許多大事，他們把運河底部挖深，讓船隻可以安心航行，他們也在高低的山坡上，打造一條順暢的高速公路，他們甚至還讓摩天大樓的地基，又深又穩固。
工業化的時代來臨，很快有新的機具取代了蒸氣設備，麥可與瑪莉面對自我存在價值的懷疑，是否經典便是老舊，就該被取代呢？
本書作者Virginia Lee Burton為美國插圖畫家和童書作者。她撰寫並插圖的七本作品，均帶有懷舊與濃濃的人文情懷，其中包括贏得了凱迪克獎的《小房子》 The Little House。

A modern classic that no child should miss. Since it was first published in 1939, Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel has delighted generations of children. Mike and his trusty steam shovel, Mary Anne, dig deep canals for boats to travel through, cut mountain passes for trains, and hollow out cellars for city skyscrapers -- the very symbol of industrial America. But with progress come new machines, and soon the inseparable duo are out of work. Mike believes that Mary Anne can dig as much in a day as one hundred men can dig in a week, and the two have one last chance to prove it and save Mary Anne from the scrap heap. What happens next in the small town of Popperville is a testament to their friendship, and to old-fashioned hard work and ingenuity.
