Each community has a variety of different buildings of all shapes and sizes. We don't usually stop to think about who put those buildings there. We often don't even think about who built our own house. Your readers will learn important concepts; construction workers are the reason we have places to live and work. They're the reason we have roads to get from one place to another. They work with other building professionals to build structures that people and businesses need. Construction workers keep our communities growing and thriving.
