Book Reviews of Cathedral: The Story of Its Construction (Sandpiper)
Book Review: Good for kids and grown-ups
Summary: 4 Stars
I was reminded the other day how much I used to love these books when I was a kid so I bought a couple of them. They're still great - and surprisingly dense. I liked the pictures when I was young; now I like the extremely detailed explanation of each step of the process of building.
Cathedral's my favorite so far; it was just a lot more complicated than a pyramid. (No offense, dead Egyptian dudes, please don't show up all staggering around in my living room with bits of rotting flesh dripping out from under your bandages; it's bad enough that the cats shed all over the couch.)
