New title in the internationally best-selling, and Blue Peter Book
Award-winning series. Following on from the incredible Invented by
Animals, Built by Animals introduces us to the creatures who have
inspired the materials and techniques that are used by humans in
the building world today. Meet over 26 animals behind the most
amazing building tech, humorously brought to life by Yeji Yun and
wittily and expertly explained by WWF educator Christiane Dorion.
This book dives into theworld of biomimicry and answers questions
like: How can we use more solar energy to power our homes? How can
we grow plants in the desert? How can we pump water to the top of
very tall buildings? How can we clean polluted rivers? From the
bee's honeycomb shape that strengthens structures to termites that
build their nests with natural air con, these creatures did it
first! And, at the end of the book, find out who wins big at the
Animal Builder Awards! Will it be the prairie dog, the peacock, the
beaver or the firefly? Built by Animals explores this amazing STEM
subject in a deceptively simple way, showing children that the
future of architecture can be inspired by and be respectful of
nature.
