My friend introduced me to the 1st book shown below. In museums I have seen fun machines built upon his examples.
Perfect books for an elementary physics unit and for kids who love machines and creating them. Highly recommend both books. Both of them are borrowed from the library.
Smash, Crash, Topple, Roll! The Inventive Rube Goldberg by Catherine Thimmesh illustrated by Shanda McCloskey -Explanations of how the six simple machines work and biographical snippets about Goldberg, ideas how to create own Goldberg machine
Just Like Rube Goldberg by Sarah Aronson illustrated by Robert Neubecker
A biography about Goldberg Highlights his determination, work ethic, perseverance
