(4) K-3 Lightning Bolt Books series. These books present basic facts and historical background about the title landmarks. The texts, in large, easy-to-read font, offer minimal but useful information; a few complex concepts (e.g., cofferdams, setbacks) are included without much explanation. Vivid photographs cover most of the pages. A cartoony map is appended in each volume. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Lightning Bolt Books titles: The Empire State Building, The Capitol Building, and The Hoover Dam.
