Pop's Bridge

Bunting, Eve. Pop's Bridge. Illustrated by C. F. Payne. Harcourt Publishing: 2006. Ages 3 to 12.

There is a boy whose dad works on a bridge. The boy is always scared his dad will fall off the bridge. One day the safety net fell down and a lot of men fell off the bridge. The boy was so worried, but his pop was safe. Only one person survived the fall off. That night the boy thought about what if his dad had fallen off the bridge. When the bridge was done, they had a party to celebrate. I think the illustrator did a wonderful job. I think a lot of people would like this book.
