This is STEAM brought to life for young minds!” –Jennie Ward-Robinson, PhD
“This is a great workbook for teachers and families to use to have fun introducing children to the world of civil engineering and construction–which is really just the world around them! Every public works department in the country can use this book to engage families in their work and make the world of infrastructure concrete (pun intended). The projects are easily done in class or at home with basic objects and art supplies.” –Dr. Caprice Young, former president of the Los Angeles Board of Education and founding CEO of the California Charter Schools Association
