The homes we live in

This book is a great new paperback edition from a series which introduces young children to the first concepts of design and technology by looking closely at everyday objects, and investigating how they are designed and put together.

Simple, friendly text and bright photographs and design make the series accessible, and encourage awareness of function, shape, materials, color and pattern. "The Houses We Live In" looks at different kinds of homes, building materials, floor and wall coverings, decoration, room design, heating, doors, windows, stairs, and roofs.
