Reach for this book when your child starts dismantling household appliances to see how they work or asks deep questions about why we live the way we do. This DK guide is a visual powerhouse that transforms the abstract history of human ingenuity into a tangible, exciting journey. It bridges the gap between simple curiosity and a structured understanding of engineering and history. Beyond technical specs, the book emphasizes the emotional grit of the inventor: the resilience needed to face failure and the imagination required to see what doesn't yet exist. It is perfect for children aged 7 to 12 who are moving from 'what' things are to 'how' and 'why' they were created. By highlighting the evolution of technology from the wheel to the robot, it builds a sense of pride in human accomplishment and inspires kids to see themselves as the next generation of problem solvers.
