101 Things You Wish You'd Invented . . . and Some You Wish No One Had
By Richard Horne and Tracey Turner
Illustrated by Richard Horne
Book Description
The inventive third book in the popular 101 Things series
#27 Was pizza really invented in Italy?
#9 Who first came up with the idea of money?
48 How did we ever survive before aspirin?
#8 Why did someone invent nuclear weapons, anyway?
The world is full of kooky things-way too many to learn about them all. So here are 101 of the weirdest and smartest, presented in a signature interactive format full of fill-in pages, checklists, and adhesive stars to mark each completed activity. Be entertained and amazed as you learn about where the things you use every day came from, and then impress your friends with your newfound knowledge!
“The quality of the book is quite impressive. With an appearance much like a field guide, this well-bound book is made with quality paper and has a very eye-catching layout. This title is a welcome addition to all libraries who serve tweens and younger teens.”—VOYA
