Annotation
This is the true tale of the rise of a New York City skyscraper, whose story spans three years from the imagining and planning by the architect, to the many hands of skilled builders and trades people, to completion. A glossary and a map showing where in the world the building materials came from for the skyscraper are provided at the back of the book. Recommended for children in grades 2-4 by Booklist.
