The poems in this collection were all related in some way to inventions that would be interesting for children. For example there is a poem about the invention of the first straw, which was actually made out of paper. The poems were whimsical and fun, and the art work that accompanied them helped to set the tone for each piece. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Inventions can be big, like roller coasters, or small, like crayons. And inventors can be scientists or athletes or even boys and girls! It's hard to imagine life without Popsicles, basketball, or Band-Aids, but they all started with just one person and a little imagination. With sixteen original poems selected by Lee Bennett Hopkins and Julia Sarcone-Roach's imaginative artwork, Incredible Inventions celebrates creativity that comes in all shapes and sizes.

Another thing I liked about the book was the use of poems that did focus on how things were created or how the concepts came about. For example, there was a very descriptive poem about Ferris Wheels. Although it didn't talk about the construction of the Ferris Wheel, it talked about the concept of people riding around in a circle by going up into the sky and back towards the ground rather than round and round on the ground only. These poems are interesting and teach you a little about the history of each of the inventions. I would have never thought to learn about puzzles, a Ferris Wheel, or any of the other things that the book talked about, but it was different and I learned a lot. Therefore, other readers probably learn a lot too.
Everyone can tell that this book is about inventions, but it has an underlying message. This message is to take time to appreciate the little things. Although a puzzle is a great activity to do, no one really thinks too much about it. The same thing goes for the Ferris Wheel. No one takes the time to appreciate that these things were invented or how they were invented. No one shows their appreciation other than playing with the puzzles or riding the Ferris Wheels. It takes a lot more than just using something. Therefore, we all need to remember to do that more often. ( )
