Description


The Big Jobs for Little Babies board book series explores dynamic careers based on baby’s favorite activities—in this case, building!

With a fun, simple rhyme, five dramatic gatefold reveals, and a high-quality mirror on the final page of this sturdy board book, Who’s Building? will nurture the youngest explorer’s curiosity about the world and their own bright futures.

What do a mason, a sculptor, a civil engineer, a carpenter, and a baby have in common? They’re all amazing builders, of course! In Who’s Building?, take a look into the many vocations that involve building—from a sculptor forming a bear out of colorful clay to a bridge-creating civil engineer! 

A mason is building.
She’s stacking each stone with precision and power.
What has she made? The fanciest . . . TOWER!
