The Big Blue Thing on the Hill by Yuval Zommer
For the animals living in the Great Forest, it's a huge problem when A Big Blue Thing (a Volkswagen van) mysteriously shows up on an otherwise peaceful Howling Hill. It has to go. The bears, wolves and foxes try to scare it away, with no luck. Then the wise old owls recommend sending in the forest's tiniest creatures — bees, wasps and mosquitoes — a big bug flying squad. And it works. At least until the next mysterious big thing arrives on Howling Hill. Our kids love following the plan of attack, cheering for team-wildlife, and giggling at the surprise ending.
