BUILDING

In a follow-up to Nesting, this classic and beautifully illustrated picture book follows a family of beavers by celebrated author-illustrator Henry Cole. Perfect for parents and teachers to share with young children to introduce beginning life science concepts.

With stunning two-color illustrations - black-and-white and spring green - this simple text follows a family of beavers as they do what beavers do best: build! Two beavers find a stream, build a dam, and raise a family in the new lodge. When the dam is threatened by storms, the beavers work hard to rebuild it.

Henry Cole was a celebrated science teacher for many years before turning his talents to children's books. He has worked on nearly one hundred and fifty books for children, including Nesting, Unspoken, Big Bug, A Nest for Celeste, Jack's Garden, and On Meadowview Street.
