About this product

Product Information

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.

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., "This is fun both in its text and gray crayon drawings.

    Item as described (New Old Stock, mint in packing). Wanted the Gillette Fusion Phenom (blue) handle back in 2007. Seemed like this variant handle didn't last long in stores. I was still using older Gillette handles due to the price of the Gillette Fusion cartridges. Good to see the original cartridge (blue exfoliating strip and the only orange trimmer housing on Gillette Fusion Family cartridges to date) on this handle. Perfectly packaged, super fast shipping, recommend this seller! Thank you!
