Small scoop. Brave heart. One enormous adventure. On Bridgewater Building Site, the machines are big and bright. There's Cora the Crane, tall as tall could be. Monty the Mixer, spinning cheerfully. And Stanley the Steamroller, solid and strong. And then there's Bram. Bram is the smallest digger on the site, a little battered, a little crooked, with a wonky yellow star on his grill. When the biggest bridge the site has ever built needs finishing, every machine gets a job. Every machine except Bram. "You're brave little Bram and we know that you care — but big bridges need big machines, and that's only fair." But when a tiny bolt falls into a gap too narrow for any large machine to reach, suddenly being small is not a weakness. It is exactly the right thing to be. Bram Can't Reach! is a rhyming picture book for children aged 2–5 about courage, belonging, and discovering that being exactly the right size is always enough. With bouncing rhymes children can join in with, a cast of loveable characters, and a refrain that little ones will be shouting before the page is turned: "Small scoop, brave heart — Bram is ready to go!" This is a book that earns its place on the bedtime shelf and stays there.
