This book is about a boy watching a new apartment complex being built at the end of his block. The book is written in the repetitive style like "The House That Jack Built" and songs that are sung in rounds. It is also written in rhymes. Young children really enjoy construction stories and pictures (look at the Bob the Builder series) and this book is not only fun to listen to and read, but introduces children to a few construction terms as well. A delightful little book.

Toddlers enjoy repetition. (For those of you who have just read the same book for the fifth time yesterday to your little one, this is no mystery!). Toddlers also love construction vehicles. The story is a cumulative tale written in the "House-That-Jack- Built" style and has bright illustrations showing a 4-story building going up. In other words, _The lot at the end of the block_ is a winning combination for toddlers and other young children who are intrigued by construction. Beware though, your tongue may become tied after multiple readings! I do wish that there was at least one "token" female operating some heavy equipment...
