Description
The Golden Gate Bridge was hailed as an international marvel when it was completed in 1937. A testament to ingenuity and courage, its construction required the efforts of many individuals working together. For Robert's father, building this iconic bridge is more than just a job - it's a challenge he can't wait to take on. As a skywalker, or high-climbing ironworker, his role is crucial to the project's success. But when a frightening event changes everything, Robert begins to see that it takes an entire team to accomplish the impossible. Eve Bunting's story celebrates the bravery and determination of every person who helped raise this majestic American icon. An author's note about the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge adds another layer of depth to this riveting tale.
