"We can all make good choices to do our part to care for Earth. Read about the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling, as well choosing items that can be used over and over"--Provided by publisher.

"Engineers design structures using domes because of their amazing ability to withstand outside forces such as weather and weight. This . . . book shows readers how engineers use the engineering design process to design dome-shaped structures that suit the environments in which they are built. Reader-centered examples illustrate concepts for children, and a model-building activity allows them to design their own dome solutions"--Amazon.

"Engineers design roads to be as safe and efficient as possible for the people who travel on them. From roundabouts and speed bumps to the routes that roads take, readers will learn how engineers follow the engineering design process to design roads that suit different environments and people who will use them. Vibrant photographs, child-centered examples, and a model-building activity allow readers to step into the shoes of engineers"--Amazon.

An introduction to the design process for tunnels.

"Some objects must be made of certain kinds of materials to make them work the way they should. Read about how the properties of different materials, such as their hardness or weight, help make an object fit the job it is made for"--Provided by publisher.

"Read about the Sun and Moon and how they change positions in the sky throughout the day. Find out what else can be seen in the sky."--Provided by publisher.

"Enjoy reading about the changes in a rabbit as it grows from a newborn bunny to a full-grown adult"--Publisher.

Explores the seasons, including the hours of sunlight, the temperature, and more.

An introduction to the design process for tunnels.

"Created to support NGSS, the Be An Engineer! series explains how different structures are designed by engineers to solve problems. Each title takes readers through the steps of the engineering design process to explain how an everyday structure is designed to overcome physical obstacles to meet peoples' needs. Real-world examples, vibrant photographs, and fact boxes reinforce learning, and readers design and create their own model structures. A link printed inside each book gives readers access to Crabtree Plus, a secure website with supplemental digital content, including engaging simulations and interactive activities that reinforce and extend key series' concepts."--.
