Description
Millions of people live in cities around the world, but have you ever wondered how cities work? All those people need clean water to drink, a safe place to live, and a way to get all around the city! How do you take care of all those people's needs? Your city has a plan for that. Read and find out all about the systems a city has to help keep everyone safe, healthy, and happy. This book on city systems will appeal to the young civil engineer. How A City Works is filled with fun, accurate art, and includes tons of information. For example, it answers the question: Where does all the electricity needed to make a city run come from? How A City Works covers water treatment, power, sewage, recycling, and transportation. How a City Works comes packed with visual aids like charts, sidebars, an infographic, and a funny, hands-on activity-how to clean up dirty "sewage" water, using puffed rice cereal, raisins, hot chocolate mix, and coffee filters.
