“Architecture: Cool Women Who Design Structures is a well–organized book with a visually appealing layout. The content is appropriate and relevant to middle schoolers. Teachers will appreciate the connections to curriculum. The inclusion of tools to encourage further research is a helpful resource for teachers looking to offer content or career–based extension activities. You never know what will spark the interest in a student to pursue a career in STEM. This book is a good start.”

"Architecture: Cool Women who Design Structures, by Elizabeth Schmermund, is another great addition to Nomad’s Girls in Science series. Interesting to read, its text, sidebars, and ask/answer sections stimulate and challenge readers to think “beyond the box.” Definitely recommended!"

"Throughout time, girls have struggled to find role models in science. This series, Girls In Science, showcases women in various roles who are standouts in their fields of study. These two books [Meteorology: Cool Women Who Weather Storms, and Architecture: Cool Women Who Design Structures], along with the others in the series, do a wonderful job of highlighting the diversity of many fields of science. They focus on the variety of jobs within each field, the history of the field and the rewards of working hard to achieve these positions. This series is one that will benefit many young readers and can broaden our views. Whether just reading for fun or using as supplemental learning resources, these books are packed full of encouraging and helpful information." Read the complete review online.
