Eureka! by Joyce Sidman illustrated by K. Bennett Chavez

Poems about Inventors
I shared this poetry book with my boys because it contained poems about Johann Gutenberg and Leonardo da Vinci (history topics).
The book begins with inventors from early history and ends with the inventor of the personal computer.  Additional information about each inventor is in the back.
We did not read all of the poems since the boys weren't that interested in them (it may have been the poems' formats that caused the disinterest.).
Warning: The first poem's illustration has naked woman wading in the water (waist high water) with long hair covering her chest.  One can still see her chest form hanging down.  I paper clipped those pages shut to avoid seeing them.
