Synopsis

From A to Z, this playful alphabet book turns civil engineering into a story kids can enjoy and grown-ups will instantly recognize.

Each letter introduces something essential from the world of civil engineering, from Aggregate and Blueprints to X-Bracing, Yellow Vests, and Zoning Maps. Along the way, young readers will meet Cranes, Excavators, and Graders, learn what a King Post and a Truss actually do, and discover why Drainage, Outfalls, and Utility Lines matter more than most people think. With simple language and witty nods to jobsite realities, it is a fast, fun read that doubles as a surprisingly sharp introduction to the built world.

Perfect as a gift for civil engineers, project managers, and construction professionals with little ones at home, this is an ABCs book with just enough shop talk to make you smile.
