Junk!

Here’s the ultimate construction book series for all young construction site fans!

Mastermind illustrator Salla Savolainen brings out the third insalment of her brilliant narrative non-fiction series about what goes on in construction sites. This book follows Asphalt! and Concrete! – the first introduced readers to the process of building roads, and the second showcased how concrete is produced.

In this third book, readers are introduced to metal recycling! This time we are shown how scrap iron is recycled for new construction and how it is collected, cleaned and sorted. Once again the reader is presented with loads of know-how and action as the pages show the ways and the machines in which all this happens. 

Site manager Koistinen stands by to instruct the crew and keep things running, and brings his eager dog Piki along, of course. Get ready for plenty of action, fascinating gizmos, and noise! 

Savolainen’s detailed illustrations of the machines and the humorous texts with interesting fact boxes are the perfect combination for small and bigger construction fans.
