Bridging Connections by Margo Smith

There are more to bridges than meets the eye. Although they help us get from point A to point B, there are many more details and interesting facts that go into bridges. In this children's story, Jacob must complete a school project on bridges, and his grandpa agrees to help him. As they adventure along the Ohio River between Louisville, Kentucky and Southern Indiana, Jacob learns about the basic types of bridges, and how they connect land to land, people to people and him to his grandpa.
