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.

非常好玩的一本書,女兒一拿到就先看瞭,裏麵還有很多好玩的遊戲可以和孩子一起玩,推薦!
評分第一次在京東自營店買也是最後一次買,一起買的書,這本比彆的紙質好些,反正彆的都不好
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DK的書還是不錯的,內容豐富,做工精緻,值得收藏。趁著活動趕緊入手瞭,內容不錯,有深度,彩葉圖片,配閤說明,都很到位,絕對是一本值得收藏的好書,可我不能給五星,一起買的套書,為啥偏偏要把這本放在最下麵呢,把書都壓壞瞭,還有最後一頁是粘住的,慢慢的分開,膠水還是把紙撕壞瞭,這種低級錯誤完全可以避免,作為收藏的,看著就是個疙瘩,看看能不能申請換貨。
