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.

評分
很棒的一本DK,樣式新穎有創意,裝幀印刷很精美,四歲的女兒很驚喜,翻著玩瞭很久。這書真的是非常值得入手,不會後悔的!
評分東西很好,不光小孩看,大人看瞭也長知識,總之贊一個,就是京東發過來的時候書封麵四個角摺瞭,也不打算計較瞭……
評分一個字好。兩個字很好。三個字太好瞭。總之很棒!很滿意!已經給孩子買瞭很多瞭。希望孩子能夠因此變得愛自然,愛科學,敬畏生命。隻能說大齣版社再加上DK二字等於好的沒商量。希望孩子能夠因此産生興趣,喜歡上閱讀。
評分有意思
評分在孩子還有時間的情況下,在經濟條件允許下,能多讀點書就多讀點書,京東活動再加上東券,很閤算,書的質量,好的,依舊沒得說,能看的抓緊時間看,不能看的先屯著,早晚都能看
評分經常網購,總有大量的包裹收,感覺寫評語花掉瞭我大量的時間和精力! 所以在一段時間裏,我總是不去評價或者隨便寫寫!但是,我又總是覺得好像有點對不住那些辛苦工作的賣傢客服、倉管、老闆。於是我寫下瞭一小段話,給我覺得能拿到我五星好評的賣傢的寶貝評價裏麵以示感謝和尊敬! 首先,寶貝是性價比很高的,我每次都會先試用再評價的,雖然寶貝不一定是最好的,但在同等的價位裏麵絕對是錶現最棒的。京東的配送絕對是一流的,送貨速度快,配送員服務態度好,每樣東西都是送貨上門。希望京東能再接再厲,做得更大更強,提供更多更好的東西給大傢。為京東的商品和服務點贊
評分孩子還不太喜歡,等大一些就好瞭
評分人生五十年,與天地長久相較,如夢又似幻;一度得生者,豈有不滅者乎?- 人間五十年,與天地相比 不過渺小一物 看世事,夢幻似水 任人生一度,入滅隨即當前 此即為菩提之種,懊惱之情,滿懷於心胸 汝此刻即上京都,若見敦盛卿之首級 放眼天下,海天之內,豈有長生不滅者? 平敦盛是平氏的旁支,官至從四位下春宮大夫,平清盛弟修理大夫經盛之子,和清盛去世後的平氏領袖宗盛是堂兄弟。傳說他容貌嬌艷,多纔多藝,尤其深通音樂,擅吹橫笛。若能長在朝中,也許風雅一時無二,京城百姓也要為之傾心吧。但可惜源氏殺來,平氏西退。行軍之中,煙塵撲麵,發髻難梳;對陣之間,鼙鼓雷響,雅樂無用。到瞭元曆二年(1185)二月,爆發瞭著名的一之榖閤戰,年僅十六歲的敦盛參加瞭這場戰役,並且就此首身分離。
