Description: "Most books are just meant to be read. But this is no ordinary book This book turns itself into rockets, code-breakers, bionic hands, balancing acrobats, demolition balls, constellation viewers, and many more ingenious human inventions. Each invention is introduced very simply with the scientific and engineering principles behind it, and all the templates, tips, and instructions to create it yourself. A pull-out Inventors Handbook includes easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions and clever hacks to help every young inventor achieve success."--
