Customer Reviews

The simplest book for learning bridge basics!

We just visited our local Children's Museum and the book was part of a library within a large, interactive display about road and bridge construction. My 3 year-old son was more interested in the book than the display! I highly recommend this to any parent for their toddler. The text and illustrations are basic but captivating enough to educate even a parent about different bridges - past and present - in our world. Great!

Children learn of structures in their own backyard.

This book takes the pre-schooler easily through the history and constructions of all types of bridges. As every book should, it encourages the child to look more closely at elements of his/her everyday life and environment. It's great to see non-fiction for children. Great graphic images.

Intelligent, wonderful introduction to bridges for kids

The author truly captivated my child for hours on end with a simple to understand primer on bridge design. The illustrations were magnificent and my daughter can now appreciate the many different types of bridges in her world.
