Dramatic pop-ups and straightforward text show the interconnectedness of seven forest-animal architects. The animals (snail, hummingbird, spider, honeybee, wasp, beaver, stickleback) are all masters of construction but depend on one another to create an ecosystem. The arresting and intricate pop-ups are displayed against varied richly colored backgrounds. A final scene shows the "neighborwood," with all seven animals coexisting.
