Customer Reviews

A good book about Machines and plenty of illustrations too.

I was looking for something about simple machines for a science project when I saw this book in the library. This is a book, I like my kids to have. From muscle power to perpetual motion and plenty of machines in between, something to tickle their imaginations (and mine too). Hope you enjoy as much as I do.
