Practical physics fun  Aug 27, 2005
Superior instructions for children of all ages. Specific building instructions for all types of bridges and many challenges.
 
Wonderful!  Feb 22, 2004
A great book with wonderful illustrations and great projects. Very useful in both the classroom and at home. A real find!!
 
Wonderful writing and alot of fun!  Aug 7, 2001
This is a great book for kids. It very clearly, but very simply shows kids how bridges works. It also walks them through creating bridges in their homes to showcase how these concepts work. Oh, and there is even a recipe for how to make cement!

This is a must buy if you or your kids are even slightly interested in bridges!

 
Don't wait 'til it's too late!  Oct 5, 2000
Was THIS book a relief to parents when it came out! One of the few real "How to" learning books about bridges. It explains how & why different types of bridges don't fall down (which is why kids learn about em in the first place) & offers fun instructions on each major kind: arches, beams, trusses, cantilevers, and suspension bridges, you know the deal. Of course, "Bridges: Amazing Structure..."also shows why some bridges fail, like the Tacoma Narrows Bridge (you've seen this one go on disaster TV shows). Don't wait until your kid says, "Mom, I have to build a bridge by tomorrow." Do it now & put it into storage if necessary.
 
Bridges: Amazing Structures to Design, Build & Test  Nov 30, 1999
Fantastic Book! Educational & Lots of Fun! My son built one of the bridges out of household items and "plays" with it constantly. It is obvious that a lot of time, research and thought went into this book. Keeps children of all ages interested.
