This is the third book we’ve read from Beaty & Robert’s STEM-inspired series, and it’s just as satisfying as the previous two, but for a surprisingly different reason. One day, on a class trip across the river, the footbridge that connects them to the mainland collapses, leaving the children and their teacher trapped! But architect Iggy knows just how to save the day, and might just change Miss Greer’s opinion of building in the process. Not able to practice his passion, Iggy loses his thirst for knowledge, becoming listless and disinterested in school. But when he attends second grade with Miss Greer, he is disheartened to find that the subject of architecture is forbidden in her class (due to Miss Greer’s disastrous childhood experience with skyscrapers). And despite his unusual choices of medium, such as food or dirt, his parents encourage his love of building. Ignacious “Iggy” Peck builds his first building at age two: a towering skyscraper of glue and diapers (used). Hello, friends! Today’s book is Iggy Peck, Architect, written by Andrea Beaty and illustrated by David Roberts, a tale about the importance of fostering passion and creativity.
