Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A machine digs a big hole. A cement mixer pours cement. Carpenters put up walls. Bricklayers, electricians, plumbers, and painters do their part. Through brilliantly simple words and pictures we follow each step, and before our eyes a house is built.

We are currently building a house so this book has been the perfect companion to this process. My little boy (two and a half) is able to make connections to the pictures in the book to what is going on in 'real life' with his house. If you are building a house and have a small child, I highly recommend this book.

A very nice book for toddlers to see how houses are made. Our grandson loves machinery and how things are made. Nice art work.

When I saw this book only had an average of 3.5 stars, I had to write my own review. My two boys LOVE this book. One is 5 years old, with mild autism, and the other is a highly gifted [...]. The text IS simple, and short, but the pictures allow for plenty of exploration and explanation. We talked about all the different people involved in building a house, the family moving in when it was complete, etc.... In my mind, this is an excellent book for sharing. Parents can expand on the simple text as they see appropriate.

This book had some great pictures and gave good information about what happens when you build a house.
I must say that I was disappointed in the incredibly short sentences. I should have known it would be like that considering the author, but I guess I thought the subject was a little more advanced so maybe the language would be too. Nope.

My kids love this book. They ask for it (and other Barton books) to be read over and over. The pictures are simple and appealing. Byron Barton is definitely on to something. Get this with My Car -- both are especially appealing to infants and toddlers.
