Prairie Boy: Frank Lloyd Wright Turns the Heartland

Synopsis

Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the biggest names in architecture, and Prairie Boy goes back to the beginning, when he was a child fascinated by blocks and shapes. He transformed that interest into architecture that reflected the real lives of modern American families, and revolutionized the way homes are designed. This book may help students begin to take more careful note of the buildings they see around them. It's a great addition to any unit on redesigning and improving established systems.
