A beautiful biographical picture book about architecture, social good, and using one's artistic skills to help others. Shigeru Ban Builds a Better World inspires children and families to learn about the remarkable work of one of the most acclaimed architects in the world, Shigeru Ban. Known for his innovative approach to materials and designs, Ban also regularly comes to the aid of disaster victims and refugees by designing temporary shelters that are typically made from inexpensive and recyclable paper tubes. His projects include a temporary school after the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, shelters after the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, and a church in New Zealand after the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. The debut title in Tra Publishing's innovative For Good series, this illustrated book encourages children and their families to learn about artists, the artistic process, and the art for humanitarian and environmental good in a way that is accessible, appealing, and welcoming. Inside, you'll find:
-An insert booklet showing examples of the artist's practice
-An original interview
-A timeline
-And more!
