Lurking in the corners of your garage, on the dusty shelves
of hardware stores, and in your own trashcan are the tools and ingredients for
creating your own adventures. Follow Celine and Tucker as they learn through
play with over 50 DIY projects! Challenged to make something "other than
trouble," this brother-and-sister pair use everyday objects to invent toys that
readers can build. Combining comics and real-life science and engineering
principles
, Howtoons are designed to encourage kids to become active
participants in the world around them.
