Illustrated by
Maple Lam.
The authors (HGTV stars and cousins) are depicted showing a diverse group of children how to build a playground using various tools: "This is a level. We use it to make sure the monkey bars are straight." With child-friendly, soft-hued watercolor illustrations and very simple, accessible text, the book invites younger audiences into the world of construction through a friendly if not terribly original story.
