Description
Bridges are some of the most fascinating structures in our landscape, and they come in all forms. From towering suspension bridges to humble stone crossings, this book visits them all in sweet, bouncing text with expository sidebars. But while bridges can be quite grand, this reminds us that their main purpose is bringing people together. This is perfect for budding architects, as well as readers who can relate to having loved ones who live far away.
About the authors
Author Cheryl Keely became a journalist because she never wanted to stop learning. But she also likes playing – digging in the dirt, running agility with her dog, blowing bubbles, and making messes in the kitchen. Writing picture books is the best of both worlds. She can combine her love of learning and love of play. When not writing, she volunteers with her dog, Dagaz, as a pet ambassador team with a local pet therapy organization. From Here to There and Me to You is her first picture book. She lives in Louisville, Kentucky, with her husband, a dog, a cat, and a fish she’s training to do tricks.
