Award-winning artist David Macaulay introduces readers to his hilarious new creations, Sloth and Sengi, in How Machines Work: Zoo Break!
Complete with a unique jacket with an interactive compound machine incorporating several of the simple mechanisms featured in the book, How Machines Work: Zoo Break! uses models and illustrations to demonstrate the technology of six simple machines: levers, pulleys, screws, inclined planes, wedges, and wheels.
Follow the mad antics of Sloth and his sidekick Sengi as they try to find their way out of the zoo with the help of machines. Their efforts are brought to life through novelty elements including pop-ups, pull-outs, and lift-the-flaps, allowing readers to explore in greater depth how and why machines work. Spreads highlight the use of simple machines in everyday objects, such as scissors and clocks, mixers and whisks, bikes and brakes, while the story contains clear and simple text to engage the reader.
Caldecott Medal award winner and MacArthur fellow David Macaulay has illustrated and written over 25 books for children. His most famous work includes The Way Things Work and Cathedral. His illustrations have been featured in popular, nonfiction books combining text and illustrations explaining architecture, design, and engineering.

评分不知道买什么书,就买dk吧,大人可以看,小孩可以看,一举两得。
评分双十一最高兴的事就是最后抢购了一批终年不搞活动,一搞活动就下架的书!哈哈哈!书都不用介绍!都是必须购入的<( ̄︶ ̄)><( ̄︶ ̄)><( ̄︶ ̄)>
评分这种创伤的传递,是合理的,却不是正确的。我绝对的、坚决的不愿意自己的孩子再去承受这种精神伤痛,因此对于生孩子这种事慎之又慎。回望我们的上一代,反思自己是否能成为合格的父母,不再把我们在这环境之下承受的痛和压抑无形中带给孩子,希望我们的下一代能真正拥有自由而独立的人格,实现他自己所想实现的价值。
评分这个书太乱了,讲的都是齿轮运转的原理,而且不够形象,徒有其表,我都看不太清楚,很何况小孩子,不推荐,浪费钱,每次都没忍住,希望优惠力度差不多,京东**就是个好,很喜欢,就是有些东西先城市没有货,希望东西更齐全一些!!
评分人生五十年,与天地长久相较,如梦又似幻;一度得生者,岂有不灭者乎?- 人间五十年,与天地相比 不过渺小一物 看世事,梦幻似水 任人生一度,入灭随即当前 此即为菩提之种,懊恼之情,满怀于心胸 汝此刻即上京都,若见敦盛卿之首级 放眼天下,海天之内,岂有长生不灭者? 平敦盛是平氏的旁支,官至从四位下春宫大夫,平清盛弟修理大夫经盛之子,和清盛去世后的平氏领袖宗盛是堂兄弟。传说他容貌娇艳,多才多艺,尤其深通音乐,擅吹横笛。若能长在朝中,也许风雅一时无二,京城百姓也要为之倾心吧。但可惜源氏杀来,平氏西退。行军之中,烟尘扑面,发髻难梳;对阵之间,鼙鼓雷响,雅乐无用。到了元历二年(1185)二月,爆发了著名的一之谷合战,年仅十六岁的敦盛参加了这场战役,并且就此首身分离。
评分小树懒斯洛瑟和小老鼠森吉是一对儿亲密无间的好朋友,他们在动物园里一起长大。他们所生活的围场对于兄弟俩而言再熟悉不过了。但坦白讲,这对儿密友已经厌倦了这里,因而开始谋划着一场大逃亡。向往自由的树懒斯洛瑟和他的密友小老鼠森吉,只能利用一切可以利用的机械物体,展开了各种疯狂的尝试。最后他们成功了吗?
