Building
with Dad
by Carol Nevius,
illustrated by Bill Thomson
Would
you like for your dad to be the one to build the new school?
Then, if your dad took you to work with you, what would
you see? In Building
with Dad, You will get to go with him from
the beginning of the construction to the finish.
It's
fun to read because the lines rhyme and because the pictures
show the action from your perspective. You see things
that are close-up as much bigger than those far away.
Building
with Dad is a great book for Take Your Child
to Work Dad! Afterward, your students can write their
own stories about their the work their parents do!
