Buildings is an expository text that explores buildings that are for animals, people, and plants. Readers also learn about the materials that these buildings can be constructed with, such as brick, glass, mud, and wood.

Photographs support important content and some are labeled. Illustrations add detail and interest to the text and are found on each page. Callouts prompt prediction and allow students to make inferences. An index is presented.

To conclude, a labels section is presented that asks children to pick the correct label that matches the material used to make the building in the image. In addition, a word bank with text and imagery is provided.
