Synopsis
Mike Mulligan proves that, although dated, his steam shovel is still useful.
Over the years Mike Mulligan and his steam shovel, Mary Anne, have worked together digging out countless basements, canals, and tunnels. However, as Mary Anne grows older, she and Mike begin to lose work to the speedy new gas and diesel shovels. Determined to prove that Mary Anne is still the best digger around, Mike agrees that they will dig out the basement for Popperville's new town hall in one day--and if they can't finish before the day is done, the town doesn't have to pay them. Although it seems that Mary Anne and Mike do have the power to dig out the basement, Mike hasn't thought about how Mary Anne is going to get out of the huge hole they've just dug. Is this the end of Mike and Mary Anne? This classic look at creatively adapting to change is illustrated with color drawings.

Publisher's Note
A modern classic that no child should miss. "This is fun both in its text and gray crayon drawings. Mike Mulligan remains faithful to his steam shovel, Mary Anne, against the threat of the new gas and diesel-engine contraptions, and digs his way to a surprising and happy ending."--"The New Yorker."
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.
