About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their child enters the obsessive pointing phase, where every stroller, bicycle, and garbage truck becomes a source of high-volume excitement. It is the perfect tool for channeling that raw curiosity into a foundational understanding of how the world functions. By explaining the mechanics of movement in a way that feels like a discovery rather than a lecture, it helps children make sense of their immediate environment. The book introduces the concept of the wheel as a fundamental tool that helps humans work and play. It covers a wide range of applications, from transportation to sports, using clear and simple language. At just 16 pages, it is specifically designed for the short attention spans of toddlers and preschoolers. Parents will find it a helpful vocabulary builder that validates a child's natural interest in machines while fostering a scientific mindset of observation and inquiry.
