内容简介

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.

封面很有特色，可以转动齿轮。书里有各种隐藏的内容，可供小孩去探索

书很大，装订非常精致，书的纸张也非常的好，作为礼物送给小朋友非常体面，内页都是彩色的，但是这个书小的小孩看不了，需要大人讲给他听，非常的开阔，小朋友的眼界。

以点心嘉年华为主题的魔术童话。可以想象，小读者阅读时必定笑声不绝。当然，还请老师和家长不要责备小读者吵闹，因为他们正在享受这场表演。　　哲璋睿智观察每种点心的物性，以他特有的魔术棒——逻辑趣味，施法包装。当读者撕开包装入口，魔术童话的趣味首先充满口腔，最后让读者口齿留香的是人性的关怀、处世态度与教育这些话题。虽然他的魔术技法有可能三两下就被大人拆穿，但可贵的是，当大人拆穿这些技法时，就会给予他更多的掌声，这是不容易的。文字游戏也是哲璋的魔术技法。他绞尽心思地让文字加入说故事的行列，让小读者在享受故事的同时学习如何运用好文字。作者简介　　林哲璋
