(2) K-3 Photographs by Michael J. Doolittle. This photo-essay traces the rise of the Random House building from conception to completion; a brief text outlines some of the construction jobs and challenges. Dramatic photos will attract youngsters and whet their appetites for more information. Goodman conveys respect for the builders and awe at the precision and effort it takes to erect such a structure.
