Simple text and bright, full-page illustrations describe what bridges are, what they cross (rivers, valleys, etc.), what they're made of, and the different kinds (these are also on the endpapers: pontoon, trestle, log, drawbridge, suspension, beam, covered, arch), as well as the types of things that cross them (people, cars, etc.). Informative; just right for a 3yo.

With simple text and full-page illustrations, different types of bridges are described -- how they are built and how they are used. There are references to specific bridges that students may have seen in person or in pictures. The author explains the importance of bridges in the cities, towns and villages.
