▼▲Editorial Reviews
▼▲"This book encourages learning in my favorite way—hands-on exploration. I love that it uses things from around the house (or in the recycling bin) and that it gives an idea of how long a project might take. After reading it, my kids were super inspired and raced to the table to start creating their own buildings!" —Lisa-Marie Fletcher, author How to Homeschool in Canada: A Travel Guide for Your Homeschooling Journey and creator of The Canadian Homeschooler website
