* ""This extraordinary new picture book masterfully tackles the complex task of contextualizing seemingly complex architectural concepts within a child's own world of play."" -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review * ""Deftly rendered."" -- The Horn Book, starred review ""A clever introduction to architecture... This book is more accessible than J. Patrick Lewis's Monumental Verse (National Geographic, 2005) or a more factual text like Culture in Action: Architecture (Raintree, 2009) and is a good precursor for either of them."" -- School Library Journal ALSC Notable Children's Books - American Library Association (ALA) Armadillo Readers' Choice Award Nominee - Round Rock Independent School District Best Children's Books of the Year - Bank Street College of Education Boston Globe-Horn Book Awards Winner - The Horn Book California Book Awards - Commonwealth Club Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy Silver Bells - Colorado State Library Eureka!
