Customer Reviews

The kids love it, read it, and learn.

My boys (3 & 6) love this book and read it over and over again. We all have learned about how the TV works, what happens when you turn on the water, and how a pizza gets made. The illustrations have been a bit confusing to my 3 year old -- he thinks people are really running around inside the electrical wires, but finally caught on. I recommend it for any child who is always asking how things work.
