Mazie's Amazing Machines / by Sheryl Haft / published by Nancy Paulsen Books / Mazie McGear loves to engineer! Whenever she encounters a problem, she turns on her imagination and starts drawing and building–think blink, ribble scribble, bing bang boom! Need a more convenient way to feed the dog? No problem! Mazie invents the Food-o-Matic. Mom needs help carrying boxes? No worries! Mazie makes her a Roly-Ramp. You can always count on Mazie to invent a machine that will make life easier–although her brother, Jake, isn’t too thrilled with her Waker-Upper Rocket. But no worries. Engineering is so cool that before long he can’t help but get into the invention action too!
