Fagbøger for børn og unge: bygninger og byggeri

I 2018 ville den verdenskendte arkitekt Jørn Utzon være fyldt 100 år, og det markerer Strandberg Publishing med en smuk og nytænkende bog henvendt til børn om den store danske kulturpersonlighed. Med Jørn Utzon som guide inviteres børn – og deres forældre – til at gå på opdagelse i arkitektens legende og eksperimenterende univers og til selv at prøve kræfter med at formgive og bygge. Jørn Utzon er et oplagt valg som guide for børn ind i arkitekturens verden, fordi hans arbejdsmetode minder så meget om børns tilgang til verden og deres måde at opleve og tilegne sig erfaringer på: åbenhed over for nye og på papiret tilsyneladende umulige idéer, udforskning og eksperimenterne og ikke mindst nysgerrighed. Gennem 15 udvalgte værker formidles arkitekturen og dens fagtermer og redskaber samt Utzons inspirationskilder. Til hvert kapitel er knyttet letforståelige vejledninger til bygge- og konstruktionsopgaver, som børnene enten alene eller sammen med deres forældre kan bruge til at udforske Utzons univers med.

Discover the ruins of the Parthenon, one of the most famous and beautiful places in the world! Athens, Greece, is best known for the Parthenon, the ruins of an ancient temple completed in 438 BC to honor the goddess Athena. But what many people don't know is that it only served as a temple for a couple hundred years. It then became a church, then a mosque, and by the end of the 1600s served as a storehouse for munitions. When an enemy army fired hundreds of cannon balls at the Acropolis, one directly hit the Parthenon. Much of the sculpture was destroyed, three hundred people died, and the site fell into ruin. Today, visitors continue to flock to this world famous landmark, which has become a symbol for Ancient Greece, democracy, and modern civilization.
