About the book

The Power of Architecture 25 Buildings of the Modern World by Annette Roeder is a children’s non-fiction book.

From private residences to affordable housing, stadiums to factories, museums to libraries - this book takes young readers across continents to learn how architecture is improving the world one building at a time. Although popular culture and classrooms are filled with references to classic and iconic buildings such as the Parthenon, the Cathedral of Notre Dame, and the Great Pyramids, there are equally valuable lessons to be learned from modern architecture, and especially from buildings situated in Global South and among underrepresented populations.

This beautifully illustrated book investigates how contemporary architects from a variety of cultures are addressing issues of climate change, income inequality, and limited resources by designing buildings that are as innovative as they are beautiful.
