Praise for Super Gear

Praise for HOW THINGS WORK series

  • "A model of clarity in nonfiction. Rarely are diagrams and metaphors--and humor--so aptly employed."--Booklist, Top 10 Books for Youth: Series Nonfiction

  • "This volume in the How Things Work series is bouncy, savvy, and, above all, clear. . . . The main event is Swanson's gift for making complicated subjects crystalline. . . . This is a model of how to make science appeal to young readers."--Booklist, starred review
