A home takes a team

Home Builder Hazel brings readers to an active construction site, where Hazel leads a crew through the work of building a house from the ground up. The rhyming picture-book text introduces the roles and cooperation involved in a shared project, while the story’s focus on a woman leading the crew offers a clear example of women in construction. An author’s note adds information about construction workers and their equipment, extending the book’s look at how homes—and the communities around them—are built.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in construction vehicles, building, or how things work
  • Families and educators looking for a read-aloud about teamwork and construction work
