June 2019--https: //redreadinghub.blog, "Website"<br><br>"A considered and engaging introduction to architecture. From igloos to bridges and awe-inspiring towers to humble homes #DiscoveringArchitecture has it all. With fascinating facts and captivating illustration, this is the perfect book for budding architects and inquisitive minds." May 2019--Picture Books Blogger "Instagram"<br><br>"Another that we have been enjoying from Button Books is the brilliant Discovering Architecture book by Eduard Altarriba and Berta Bardi I Mila. Children are always interested in buildings and often see the detail that we, as adults, no longer spot. I love walking around cities and looking up - up at the inscriptions on old buildings and learning more about what uses they would once have had. The Discovering Architecture book talks about some well-known buildings but also about the fundamentals of architecture." may 2019--https: //letthembesmall.com/ "Website"<br><br>"I absolutely love these educational books published by Button Books, from the bold bright covers to the detailed drawings and easy to understand and follow text. Aimed at children aged eight and over, these are some seriously fun and educational books to have in your library." may 2019--https: //www.rachaeljess.com "Rachael Jess"<br><br>"In my years of teaching I've noticed that lots of children are fascinated by buildings but I don't see too many books on the subject that are as stylish and informative as this one... This book is packed full of so many fascinating facts about architecture and architects. With quirky illustrations of buildings you will already know as well as humble homes and houses this book has a building for everyone. I particularly like the way it considers the role of architect and not just the building itself. A new angle that I haven't read about before. This is brilliant for construction enthusiasts, artistic designers and aspiring architects!" May 2019--Book Bairn "Instagram"<br><br>"The book is full of information and ideas to make children think about what they can see around them. Design is such a fundamental part of our lives without us even realising it. Discovering Architecture is a great addition to our bookshelf and one I can see my son coming back to a lot in the years ahead." May 2019--https: //over40andamumtoone.com/ "Over 40 and Mum to One"<br><br>"The perfect introduction as the buildings from way back are so amazing and still influence so much in today's world. I have really enjoyed reading this book and am planning on using it as a starting point for a few crafting / building sessions with the kids." May 2019--https: //ofamilylearningtogether.com/ "Family Learning Together"<br><br>"These books reinforce the idea that children are never too young to start learning and exploring bigger, more complicated and complex ideas and concepts. They are super child-friendly but also extremely helpful for adults too! They are bright and vivid. Eye catching and engaging from the first pages and with so much to read and see, there is always the possibility of more to be learned, questions to be asked and a wealth of knowledge to be taken on board."
