ISBN:  9780425287781 0425287785 Edition:  [Young Readers edition]. Description:  152 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  A Young Readers adaptation of the New York Times Bestselling book where author, Steven Johnson, walks readers through the history and impact of six inventions that influence the modern world. His fascinating account is organized into six topics: glass, cold, sound, clean, time, light. Johnson's fresh exploration of these simple, single-syllable word concepts creates an endlessly absorbing story that moves from lightning strikes in the prehistoric desert to the herculean effort to literally raise up the city of Chicago to laser labs straight out of a sci-fi movie. In other words, it's the story of how we got to now! Audience:  Ages 10+ Grades 4 to 6. Other authors:  Keenan, Sheila.
