Gears Go, Wheels Roll

Reach for this book when your child starts asking exactly how things work: how a bicycle moves, how a clock ticks, or why a heavy truck can roll so easily. It is an ideal choice for the transition from simply playing with toys to understanding the mechanical engineering behind them. The book provides a foundational look at simple machines, using real-world examples that children encounter in their daily lives. Beyond the science, this is a fantastic resource for bilingual households or those looking to introduce Spanish vocabulary through a high-interest topic. The text is structured to build confidence in young readers, focusing on clear, descriptive language and supportive photography. It fosters a sense of curiosity and pride as children learn to identify gears and wheels in the world around them, making it a perfect fit for inquisitive children aged 5 to 8.
