Summary:
There's something irresistible about a skyscraper. It can reshape an entire city skyline; and from the building's top floors, people can see the world from a different perspective. Travelling from New York City to Dubai, from London to Shanghai, and from Kuala Lumpur to Chicago, this colourful book features double-page spreads for each of the skyscrapers it profiles. Each chapter includes photographs, information on the building's architect and history, and interesting facts about its
construction
and use. Written in a style that will draw in young readers, this fascinating tour of the world's tallest
buildings
will satisfy even the most curious minds.
