"Tools help us build. They are used for different kinds of work." This basic introduction by an award-winning author and illustrator shows how tools such as rulers, saws, planes, hammers, and drills are used to measure, cut, scrape, pound, and make holes so that we can make things. The simple text and clear illustrations are appealing and inviting.
