A rollicking educational kids' book that is part biography, part inspiration, and part physics how-to, Smash, Crash, Topple, Roll! posits the ultimate question … why do anything the simple way?

Endlessly entertaining, needlessly complex, and achieving a delicate balance of physics, humor, and excitement! The book includes an overview of the six simple machines that power most of Goldberg’s inventions and puts the tools for making real-life Rube Goldberg machines right into readers’ hands. It’s the perfect thing to spark the imaginations of budding inventors, artists, and thinkers of all ages—because the most promising relationships with science start not with a textbook but with the willingness to break stuff and ask silly questions!

There are more and better opportunities for kids to embrace and explore a love of science and engineering today, and Rube Goldberg was an artist, too!
