Join Lucy on an Engineering Adventure!
“How do they work? Why don’t they fall?
What lights them up? Do they need to be tall?”
Lucy goes to work with her father to explore how buildings work.
Help her find unique solutions to STEM problems and see if you’d like to be an engineer too!
**************************
This rhyming picture book introduces children to building and HVAC engineering through a young girl's visit to an unfinished building, where her father uses a metaphor of the human body to explain the building's beams and columns, electrical system, and HVAC ducts. Lucy's curiosity is encouraged by her father throughout.
This is ASHRAE's first picture book and was developed by ASHRAE’s Student Activities Committee as part of their goal to promote and encourage engineering and HVAC&R careers. ***********
