(3) K-3 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. Illustrated by Violet Lemay. This effective introduction to urban planning and engineering focuses on connecting children's everyday experiences--such as water in the faucet and lights that come on with the flip of a switch--to the systems that make them possible. The cheerful illustrations portray city life as appealing and orderly. An appended activity demonstrates the principals of water treatment. Websites. Glos.
