Digging Up Facts: In Mi Biblioteca de Ingeniería: Diseño y Construcción en la Tierra, kindergarten—second graders learn about what engineers have to think about in order to build houses and other important structures in the dirt.

Engineering Made Fun: Dirt is under everything that people build from the ground up. Young readers learn how engineers dig, move, and level the ground in order to make houses, tunnels, dams, and more!

Build Reading Skills: This engaging 24-page children’s book will help your child improve comprehension and build confidence with an introduction to engineering and a fun, design activity.

Leveled Books: Part of the Mi Biblioteca de Ingeniería series (My Engineering Library), the early reading level text and vibrant photos make this kid's book an engaging story about how our most popular designs are made starting from the dirt.

The land is everywhere! Dirt is under buildings, roads, sidewalks, and everything else that people build. How does the earth need to be moved and shaped before the structures can be built?

¡La tierra está en todos lados! Está debajo de los edificios, los caminos y las banquetas. ¿Cómo necesita moverse y moldearse la tierra antes de que se puedan construir las estructuras? ¡Halla lo que piensan los ingenieros cuando construyen en la tierra!
