Follow the excavator as it helps protect homes from falling in the sea.

This real-world rhyming story takes children on a journey from the quarry to the coastline, where huge rocks are carefully placed to help protect beaches from the power of the sea. Along the way, they discover the people, vehicles and processes involved in keeping our coastlines safe.
