Intention....Invention
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This delightful little book is a wonderful way to begin teaching youngsters about inventions. Children like to use everyday objects in new ways and Pape & Winkowski's book capitalizes on this inventive spirit in a playful manner. From the Witch Watch Machine to the Melting Pot Machine, rhyming couplets tell as much about unique problems as their solutions. It has children ages 5-9 asking for more. Cinderella herself might join in the laughter as the CinderSander machine entry is read.
