The Big Questions: What Is a Bridge?
What is a bridge?
Is it stone or steel... or something more?
From ancient vine crossings to glittering skywalks, from mythic arches to bridges between hearts - this vibrant, poetic nonfiction book takes children on an unforgettable journey through the world's most magical crossings.
The Big Questions: What Is a Bridge? is written in the signature Ethan Solace style: lyrical, emotionally rich, visually inspiring, and deeply thoughtful. With each chapter, young readers aged 5-12 explore not just how bridges are built, but why they matter - as symbols of connection, courage, and imagination.
Whether it's a drawbridge rising for ships, a rope bridge swaying in the wind, or a beam of light linking two worlds, this book invites children to ask bigger questions:
What do bridges teach us about each other?
What invisible bridges do we cross every day?
And could they become bridge-builders too?
Perfect for classrooms, bedtime reading, or thoughtful family conversations, this beautifully illustrated book blends engineering, history, myth, and metaphor into one radiant celebration of what it means to connect.
Independent Author Disclaimer
This book was written, illustrated, and refined entirely by an independent author - not a corporate team. Every word was crafted with care. Every image was thoughtfully built using Adobe's creative tools, with AI used only as a brush in the hands of a human artist - never as a replacement. Nothing here was outsourced. Nothing was factory-made.
While large publishers increasingly rely on ghostwriters, stock art, and AI-driven shortcuts, this book was made the old-fashioned way - with love, time, and the quiet intention to make something real. One mind. One voice. Every page holds the heart of its creator.
Think of it like artisan storytelling - slow-made, deeply felt, and built for children who deserve wonder. If you believe in protecting human creativity and championing independent voices, this book isn't just a story.
It's a stand.
