Ingenious : how Canadian innovators made the world smaller, smarter, kinder, safer, healthier, wealthier and happier / by Johnston, David,1941-author.; Jenkins, Tom,1959-author.;
"Successful innovation is always inspired by at least one of three forces--insight, necessity, and simple luck. Ingenious moves through history to explore what circumstances, incidents, coincidences, and collaborations motivated each great Canadian idea, and what twist of fate then brought that idea into public acceptance. Above all, the book explores what goes on in the mind of an innovator, and maps the incredible spectrum of personalities that have struggled to improve the lot of their neighbours, their fellow citizens, and their species. From the marvels of aboriginal invention such as the canoe, snowshoe, igloo, dogsled, lifejacket, and bunk bed to the latest pioneering advances in medicine, education, philanthropy, science, engineering, community development, business, the arts, and the media, Canadians have improvised and collaborated their way to international admiration. Ingenious tells you why they did it and how they made the world a better place."--

The most magnificent idea / by Spires, Ashley,1978-;
Usually, the girl is an idea machine -- sometimes her brain is so full of ideas that her hands can't keep up. But today feels different. She seems to have everything she needs to get to work... but she doesn't know what to make! She searches high and low for an idea. She and her dog go for a walk, they brainstorm, they research, they dig through the entire house, but the girl can't find a single idea anywhere. What if she never has another idea ever again?LSC

Read by Zak Morgan.An inquisitive bear ventures into People Town, where he makes quite the curious discovery. What is this? A springy thing-a bouncy thing-a sit-on-it, jump-on-it thing! It's a bit too cumbersome to bring back to the woods, however, so Bear runs home to tell his friends. But none of his friends are willing to help, so Bear invents a "Rolly-Rumpity" to wheel home the "Thingity-Jig." Through trial and error-and lots of shooing away from sleepy friends-Bear finally wheels the "Thingity-Jig" home to the woods, where he graciously shares his find. Reading specialist and former educator Kathy Doherty blends upcycling and STEAM with a delightful story and wordplay in this charismatic picture book that's ideal for read alouds. Illustrator Kristyna Litten brings the charming world to life with detailed, imaginative art and characters.
