Five friends set out to build a doghouse for their dog, Max, but before they can start, they need to learn all they can about buildings. They head to the library (the perfect place to start! :)) and learn all about how buildings are made, what makes them strong, and what keeps them standing. Now they are ready to build Max an amazing doghouse!
Great beginning book about structures because there is a perfect ratio of text to pictures. Younger students wouldn't be intimidated by the text, which is sometimes in comic-book-style discussion format, and would enjoy the illustrations as well. Each page includes interesting facts about buildings that are bolded on each page. The most fun thing about the book is that the last page teaches you how to make your own mini doghouse. Great non-fiction book for intermediate grades.
