This is the best early intro to engineeing I've ever seen.I used it with my son who has ended up as a physics major.The projects are both beautifully simple to construct andto anaylze contruction itself. Appropriate for mature5 yr olds up to middle school.

Bought this to play with my grandson along with a case of straws :-) He didn't look at the book too much, I enjoyed it. But the point was the kickstarting of the building of our own house, using some of their techniques, and some of our own. A great time was had by all!

It was a bit more "used" then I thought it would be but overall it was a great book for the boys.

Good ideas!!
