Curious Constructions: A Peculiar Portfolio of Fifty Fascinating Structures

An illustrated collection of unusual architecture, perfect for young builders, written with a “wry humor” that is sure to “keep readers entertained” (Publishers Weekly). Curious about constructions? Inside this book, you’ll come face-to-face with fifty incredible structures, including: a fire-breathing octopus sculpture; the skateboard ramp you’d need to jump the Great Wall of China; a whole community of tree houses in Costa Rica; and a life-size X-Wing Starfighter built of Legos. These and many more fascinating accounts of constructions both fantastically useful and gloriously unnecessary await inquisitive readers, aspiring engineers, and anyone who ever looked at a skyscraper and thought, “Yeah, but what if it had a roller coaster on top?” “Hearst obviously had a lot of fun compiling this interesting assortment of man-made creations, making great use of wit and puns.” —School Library Journal
