Perfect for inspiring kids in the classroom and at home, Kailei Pew's middle grade nonfiction debut, illustrated by Shannon Wright, is full of fun stories about real kid inventors who proved that even the youngest people can change the world.
What do swim fins, Popsicles®, Infection-Detecting Stitches, the Braille alphabet, and Taco vs. Burrito all have in common? They were all invented by kids!
When Remya Jose had to spend many hours washing her family’s laundry by hand, she invented a pedal powered washing machine that could finish the chore in only 20 minutes! When Tripp Phillips’ Lego creations kept falling apart, he developed a glue strong enough to hold his creations together that would wash off when he was ready to build something new! And when Fatima Al Kaabi didn’t have anyone willing to teach her about robotics, she turned to the internet to teach herself all the skills she needed―and created multiple crowd-pleasing robots in the process!
