Have you thought about how some of the greatest inventions in the world started as failures? Inventions like Coca-Cola, shoes, and vacuum cleaners were actually mistakes?
Thomas Edison famously said, "I have not failed even once in making a light bulb; I just found ninety-nine ways to not make it." In "When Everything Went Wrong," young readers will learn about 10 inventors who persevered!
Through these stories, they will discover strange and exciting tales of ten great characters who brought amazing inventions and creations to life... after many, many mistakes!
These stories, through funny and entertaining comic illustrations, teach children to interpret mistakes and unexpected events as natural steps in the creative process, and that courage, determination, and resilience can turn failure into the first step toward success.
