Gr 1–5—Theule tells the story of concrete, from ancient times to its rediscovery in the 18th century, and in pareddown style introduces readers to advanced vocabulary, architectural monuments, professions, social history, and
more, with clarity, directness, and humor. An utterly compelling read.

Informative but not intimidating, with clear illustrations and plenty of white space. Definitions are provided in text at the point of need (e.g. "CONCRETE is a composite building material. Composite means made up of different parts"). Fascinating.

Back matter is scant, only a bibliography.

Synergy: Concrete

CONCRETE is a composite material made of stone, sand, water, and cement. From bridges and dams to lighthouses and skyscrapers, concrete is used in a wide range of construction projects.

Create a display featuring concrete examples, building models, and LEGO bricks. Ask children to design a building that could be made with concrete.

Read the recently published nonfiction children’s picture book, then learn more at the website:

CONCRETE: FROM THE GROUND UP by Larissa Theule and illustrated by Steve Light defines concrete and traces its history. Part of the Material Marvels series, readers learn about the many types of structures built with concrete. The illustrator’s use of speech bubbles on captivating color drawings along with the author’s short, informational texts combine for an engaging and informative picture book.
