Izzy Gizmo and the Invention Convention Pip Jones

Beloved inventor Izzy Gizmo returns in an engaging tale of competition, resourcefulness, and sheer determination--snap this one up for aspiring engineers and maker space learning.


Izzy Gizmo has been invited to compete at an invention convention for a spot in the Genius Guild! Great inventors produce gadgets that can be put to good use, so Izzy Gizmo decides to build a recycling machine that mends broken tools.

But another contestant, Abi von Lavish, has been hogging all the best materials. How is Izzy supposed to finish her invention if she can't even find the parts to put it together? With the help her crow sidekick, Fixer, Izzy will have to adjust her plans and find another way to win.

In this companion to Izzy Gizmo, Author Pip Jones once again pairs jaunty rhyme with illustrator Sara Ogilvie's energetic illustrations to produce a wonderfully exuberant STEAM-filled story starring a very inspiring and determined heroine.
