(3) 4-6 Translated by Yolanda Stern Broad. This French import introduces readers to ten amazing bridges and their architects and engineers, including the first cast-iron bridge, built over England's Severn River in 1779; the Plougastel Bridge, an all-concrete bridge built in 1930 France; and Calgary's 2012 Peace Bridge, a 428-foot walkway. With a handsome horizontal design echoing the lines of a bridge, the book contains finely detailed, small-scale architectural drawings that invite careful scrutiny.

(4) 4-6 In these stylish, cleanly designed volumes, young readers are introduced to the influential architects--including Le Corbusier, Gustave Eiffel, and Frank Gehry--behind some of the most well-known structures in the world. Small-scale line drawings with limited coloring follow the text closely, but details are often too finely rendered to be of much use in clarifying technical architectural concepts. Review covers these titles: Who Built That?: Modern Houses and Who Built That?: Skyscrapers.
