Great Inventors by Alex Fabrizio

You are never too little to have big dreams

Have you ever dreamed of inventing something?

Cai Lun invented paper in China long ago.

James Edward West created a tiny microphone.

Mary Anderson produced windshield wipers

Discover history's brilliant inventors in this adorably illustrated tribute to people who have shaped our world. From Benjamin Franklin, who discovered that lightning is electric, to Jeanne Villepreux-Power, who built the first aquarium--Great Inventors honors the problem solvers who changed our world with their ideas. If you have ever wondered who created the tiny microphone that allows us to use telephones and other original creations, this delightful little book is a must-have.

This board book is ideal for readers with a persistent spirit and curious mind--to innovate, craft, and transform notions into reality. Dream up making a machine to print books with Johannes Gutenberg and devise flying machines with Leonardo da Vinci.

From Starry Forest Books, Baby's Big World introduces babies to big concepts--everything from rocket science to music--for the very first time.
