Critics Review
This colourful, activity-packed series is a great way to interest girls and boys in STEAM subjects. Starting with the basics of how structures are built, the book gives clear step-by-step descriptions of all that goes into building structures … a fascinating read which is very informative. * Parents In Touch *
Ideal for widening the interests of older primary pupils who will probably cover the basic concepts in science or maths lessons, but the extension of those lessons into real world scenarios, such as buildings, will spark the imagination of the curious child. – June Hughes * The School Librarian *
