Build your own car, rocket, and other things that go by Tammy Enz

Like to know how to make a mousetrap car?

Mousetrap carThis title is one of four in a series called Build it yourself, designed to have children creating and building a variety of projects that include: cars, forts, periscopes, flashlights, mini golf courses, and lemonade stands.

In Build your own car, rocket, and other things that go, you can make, besides the mousetrap car, a helicopter launcher, paddle wheel boat, water blaster rocket, foam flyer, and race car.

Each book begins with a list of tools, and tips for safety. All the projects are well laid out with step-by-step instructions, full-colour photographs, and include an estimated build time.
