Engineers are clever problem solvers who invent and build machines and other objects. To do their jobs they use LOTS of science. In this title for early readers, the Little Scientists meet engineers who use scientific equipment to invent machines that help us in our everyday lives, build spacecraft and even develop and build high-tech artificial limbs for children. This colourful, quirky and delightful first look at the work of an engineer will help young readers develop a love of reading and of science.
