What is the difference between a town and a city? What are some of the jobs needed to keep a city functioning? Where are they done? What does a factory do? Learning the answers to questions like these can often be neglected with young children, but understanding these basic concepts can make a big difference. This illustrated book covers a variety of things related to cities: different types of jobs, names for different types of buildings and stores, different types of roads.


The accompanying learning guide directs a student step-by-step through the book, and provides many fun activities that help the student apply what is being learned. Several cut-outs are attached for creating models of buildings.
