Young readers will connect with the story of this National Historic Landmark--the Brooklyn Bridge! Building the Brooklyn Bridge was no simple feat. Despite a brilliant plan from a father-son team of engineers, the process was a dangerous and grueling one. Construction workers developed a mysterious illness (now known as the bends), several died, and the project had devastating effects on the engineers' lives. Still, after fourteen years, the Brooklyn Bridge was finished and became the longest suspension bridge in the world at the time and is still widely admired today. Megan Stine tells the fascinating story behind one of the city's best-loved landmarks. Includes black-and-white illustrations and a foldout color map!

In an effort to encourage J & J's curiosity, Author Kemberley Portis began a Saturday ritual. Saturday mornings were officially dedicated to STEM projects. After seeing J & J's reactions and how much they were learning from their fun-filled Saturday projects, she thought for sure there are other kids who also have love for Science. Kemberley then decided to take note of J & J's science journey and share with others. Kemberley is most proud of this book's relatable, realistic, and hands-on experiments that uses materials every household has or can purchase at affordable prices. What a win win! Are you ready to join in on J & J's fun learning-filled science journey? If so, come along for the ride!
