"A nifty, unexpectedly sophisticated exploration of the tools and professions connected to the world of construction." (Kirkus Reviews)
STARRED REVIEW
"Women are well represented among Datz’s carpenters, roofers, electricians, plumbers, and painters (who are drawn in a range of skin tones), providing a subtle 'you could do this, too' message that is cemented in a closing scene of two children playing with blocks in the finished house." (Publishers Weekly)
"The precise language paired with smiling, cartoon renderings of each tool make this an accessible and fun approach to learning." (Booklist)
