Great interactive book of opening flaps to find out how everything works from machines to musical instruments to inventions. Made me think.

I liked to find out how things worked, my favourite was cogs. I find this kind of thing interesting, I'd recommend it to people who are creative and like science.

This is a fact book which tells you how things work by open up flaps that are where things are in real life, so they told us how escalators work by lifting a flap over a picture which then showed you what was inside. It was a great way to find out things and I would recommend this to people interested in things that are really clever!!!
