Young readers will love to peek through the pages of this busy board book to discover what goes on at a construction site!

Young readers will love to peek through the pages of this busy board book to discover what goes on at a construction site! The peek-through pages and detailed pictures are just right for young learners. Children will discover all of the different machines and equipment needed to complete a construction project--this time, it's a school that's being built! A bulldozer pushes rubble out of the way; a worker uses a shovel to dig a small hole; and a cement mixer mixes cement to be poured for the building's foundation. All of the workers and machines must work together to complete the project.

Originally from Wales, Kate Ware designs and illustrates children's books from her studio in North Herefordshire, England where she lives with her family. She loves gardening, cooking and going for walks with Pickle the pug. She also has a large selection of chickens and four pet lambs named Cookie, Peggy, Rose, and Simple.

Maria Perera was born in Gijon, a small town in the north of Spain. At a very young age she found out that there are few things in life she enjoyed as much as listening to The Beatles and drawing. When she grew up she graduated in Art History at the University of Oviedo and soon after she studied Graphic Design at the Art School of Aviles. Maria still listens to The Beatles and feels fortunate to be able to do what she loves the most for a living: illustration.

This board book shows how a new school is built.

Designed for little readers who are curious about the construction process beyond merely vehicles that dig, this book depicts the destruction of a school, the completion of the new one, and much more in between. The text covers everything from safety rules to just how long it can take to construct a new building. There are also engaging questions presented to readers, such as “Can you see a little mouse?” and “Can you find a wheelbarrow down low?” The text is explanatory and includes potentially new vocabulary in a seamless way. The book features “peek-through pages,” as the cover describes it—cutouts that allow readers to see all the way to the end, each page turn revealing more details. While at times the cutouts skew the perspective of the construction site, they are mostly successful. The illustrations include just the right amount of detail, encouraging readers to linger. They depict information that is not stated in the text but that is essential to the story. For example, readers will note the seasons changing from page to page. The site crew features people with varying skin tones and hairstyles and, refreshingly, includes women construction workers.

A blueprint for engaging readers and satisfying their curiosity. (Board book. 2-4)--Kirkus
