[Lagobond · Rating 5 out of 5]

An excellent nonfiction book for beginning readers. The descriptions of the igloo building process are to the point and easy to follow. The photos and drawings go well with the story and help with understanding. I've helped build a basic igloo and this is pretty much how I remember the process (although we did not furnish it in the traditional way).

Not sure why it's in past tense.
