Cathedral by David Macauley?
Or if not that, check out his other works.
This reminds me of the David Macaulay book: Cathedral. It's actually a children's book, not really scientific, but it'll probably tell you everything you want to know. Or watch this PBS version: https://youtu.be/MZpOd2pHiI0
Fixed link.
I scrolled down just for this. I have fond memories of a co-worker bringing in a book that explained with illustrations how cathedrals were built. It may have been Macaulay. The most impressive thing to me was the hamster-wheel like lift they used to bring materials up to height.
Hell Yes!

I have architectural blueprints from a family member that I'm going to let him copy or trace soon.
I give him Lego challenges. Www.dameoftheden.com/block-challenge/
I'm looking forward to seeing him grow, little engineers are fascinating!
I really enjoyed Macaulay's books like Cathedral, but for "The Way Things Work," I'll stick with the old dense version (pre-Macaulay).
