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.

评分京东618,不断剁手,这本书真的很提纲挈领,加拿大人给小孩写的,通过历史上有重要意义的180个历史事件、人物以及发明概述了世界式(英文副标题是180events,people and inventions that changed the world) ,感觉很契合新教材和大纲哦!内容很简洁,还不时有小链接互相征引,对于初步了解世界式的小朋友可以做概览参考,大一点的孩子可以根据内容扩展,还可以作为课本内容补充,有活动价,感觉入手很值…不过读的很仓促,记得看过介绍说人类最古老的祖先是700多万年前的乍得沙赫人与首页600万年稍有差异,希望后面的时间结点都没有问题…主要看精神,哈哈
