What does it take to build a building taller than any other building in the world? Skyscrapers don't just look impressive, there's a lot of work put into keeping them standing tall! From drilling anchor holes and erecting steel beams, to laying acres of concrete, each step is carefully orchestrated to create these massive marvels. Young readers will put on their hard hats and walk with engineers and construction workers as they learn what goes into creating a skyscraper. Full-color photographs with diagrams help young readers understand the science behind skyscrapers.
