InventorJohanna & the scare machine
"You can't join. Plus, you're too small," a mean guy says to Johanna and grabs her arm tightly.
Oh! Johanna gets so angry! How is she too small to be there? Johanna decides to invent a scare machine. A machine that will silence all the roaches and “you can't be there” types.
Inventor Johanna & the Scary Machine is a picture book that many little inventors can identify with. The books about Inventor Johanna aim to inspire children to think new and freely when it comes to technical ideas and solutions. It also aims to increase girls' interest in technology.
NEW! Let the book's story transition into doll play, combine your book with the UppfinarJohann doll !
Said about the book:
The slightly cocky, inventive Johanna is a very good role model for both boys and girls. The stereotypical gender perspectives are stripped away and there is still a story for children. The daughter identifies with Johanna and enjoys feeling brave and smart.
This is a book that many little inventors can identify with. But it is also a book about what it feels like not to be included. Although the story also offers some funny moments and in the end the siblings stick together. Various publishers have specialized in publishing books that counteract classic gender roles. This is also noticeable in this book about strong Johanna who refuses to give up.
