Izzy Gizmo and the Invention Convention - by Pip Jones (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Inventor Izzy Gizmo returns in an engaging tale of creativity and determination--perfect for little makers and STEAM fans.

Izzy Gizmo and her crow sidekick, Fixer, have been invited to Technoff Isle's annual convention where the inventor of the best machine will win a membership to the Genius Guild. Great inventors produce gadgets that can be put to good use, so Izzy decides to build a recycling machine that mends broken tools.

But with fearsome competitor Abi von Lavish hogging all the materials and getting the best of Izzy at every turn, how will Izzy ever be able to create the winning invention?

From the team that brought you Izzy Gizmo, author Pip Jones and illustrator Sara Ogilvie produce a wonderfully exuberant story starring a very inspiring and determined heroine.
