Review:

Have you ever seen an underground palace? In Moscow the Metro is one of the oldest subways in the world and its station is amazing just like a palace. In Rome, you could visit the Colosseum a place where gladiators used to battle. Do you know where kings were buried in Egypt? The pyramids of Giza is where all their history was stored. Are you familiar with the castle represented at Disney Land? It’s a real castle called the Neuschwanstein Castle built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria.

Beautifully illustrated, this interactive guide will lead young readers around the world to see some of the most famous architectural wonders of the world. The tour guides are two silly monkey’s named Ben and Mia. At the bottom of each page are cool facts about the architects, building materials and history. Readers are asked to find things on the pages in the many scenes found on these pages. Parents and teachers will get kids engaged especially those who want to design and build structures some day.
