During World War II, a little boy is sent to live with his grandma, a cook in a camp for workers building a road through the wilderness.

A new road is built so Farmer Dibble can drive his truck to town.

"Foreman Frankie is paving a new highway. To do so, Foreman Frankie and his crew need to mix concrete, pour a layer of asphalt, and make sure the road is very smooth. Sing along to the tune of 'Yankee Doodle' as you read the book and see how quickly Foreman Frankie and his crew can pave the highway!"--
