Who invented it? - for reading and marveling at the table

Smart people and their inventions aren't just found on smartphones. This book has often given me a real alternative, especially at the dinner table when we wait hungry in the restaurant. Who invented it? is a colorful journey through our past that shows how surprising ideas and brilliant ideas have paved the way for today's technology, culture and medicine.

Who actually invented the car? The light bulb or the jeans we all wear? Many things we take for granted today didn't just appear.

Smart inventors, scientists and engineers are behind it! While many discoveries are the result of teamwork and long evenings in the lab, others are the result of happy accidents. In this book you can discover them together with your kids.
