(4) K-3 Now That's Big! series. This series highlights marvels of human engineering. Building on a massive scale takes huge effort, and crisp photographs in clean layouts illustrate these monumental feats. The large-font texts, though informative, can be choppy and vague ("People in South Dakota made Mount Rushmore to get other people to visit their state," "People love working in or visiting the Empire State Building"). Reading list. Glos., ind. Review cover these Now That's Big! titles: Empire State Building, Golden Gate Bridge, and Mount Rushmore.
