The Brooklyn Bridge, the iconic suspension bridge that connects Manhattan and Brooklyn, was completed in 1883. It is thanks to Emily Warren Roebling that the bridge was finished at all. Emily was not an engineer, but she was educated in math and science. She married Washington Roebling, the chief engineer of the famous bridge. When Washington became ill from decompression sickness, Emily stepped in, doing everything from keeping the books, to carrying messages for her husband, to monitoring the construction of the bridge. She was the first person to cross the Brooklyn Bridge when it opened."-- |cProvided by publisher. 521 1 Ages 7-10 521 2 Grades 1-4 521 8 930 |bLexile 600 10 Roebling, Emily Warren, |d1843-1903 |vJuvenile literature. |=^A1100012 650 0 Bridges |zNew York (State) |zNew York |xDesign and construction |vBiography |vJuvenile literature. |=^A1113913 651 0 Brooklyn Bridge (New York, N.Y.) |vBiography |vJuvenile literature. |=^A67394 651 0 Brooklyn Bridge (New York, N.Y.) |xHistory |vJuvenile literature. |=^A67394 655 7 Biographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Juvenile works. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411637 655 7 Creative nonfiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Biographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Picture books. |2lcgft 700 1 Nelson, Natalie |eillustrator. |=^A1427452 776 1 Wishinsky, Frieda. |tHow Emily saved the bridge./. |dToronto : Groundwood Books, 2019 |w(CaOONL)20189036753 938 Brodart |bBROD |n122957652 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n15662449 949 B R621W |wDEWEY |hJOYNER11 |ojcas 994 C0 |bERE 590 Joyner TRC copy purchased in memory of James Thompson, 2021. 596 1 998 5632324
