Travel the world and look at some of the most amazing buildings - inside and out! Find out how they're built, what they do and lots more fantastic facts in this exciting and very visual book. Each building is intricately illustrated, providing lots of detail to look at and talk about.
Pages 22 and 23 show the buildings divided up by their purpose - store, make or protect - promoting plenty of discussion and reasoning.
Additional retrieval devices such as a glossary and index can be evaluated for their usefulness as children develop critical reading skills.
Turquoise (Band 7) books contain paragraphs of approximately four or five sentences, less supported by illustrations or photographs. Literary language and extended descriptions are used, with a wider range of unfamiliar terms.
