Bridges Are to Cross

32 pp. | Putnam | October, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-399-23174-9 $$15.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Giles Laroche. Real bridges from around the world serve as examples of the different methods engineers have used to span rivers, canyons, and valleys. The tri-part text (a line of descriptive prose; the name, location, creation date, and style of the bridge; and a caption with engineering details) is choppy, but the detailed three-dimensional cut-paper illustrations will have readers gazing for hours.
