K博士的神奇發明 Kay’s Incredible Inventions

 
　　你曾經想過生活中的各種東西都是從哪裡來的嗎？你知道是誰這麼天才想到要發明手機？或是哪個討人厭的傢伙，想到要發明學校？你知道魔鬼氈的發明和狗狗有關嗎？
 
　　廁所的歷史大概跟屁股一樣悠久，距今約600年前，人們還常常把大便扔出窗外，對於剛好路過窗外的路人來說，幸好雨傘那時已經發明了！一起來發現全世界最酷、最荒謬、最噁心的發明小知識，各種對人類文明有著劃世代影響力的重大發現（以及一些毫不重要的荒謬發明）都在這裡，等你來探索！

Do you ever wonder where the stuff around you all came from? No, not from eBay. I mean, who had the amazing idea of making a mobile phone or the annoying idea of building a school? For example, did you know that Velcro was invented by a dog and WiFi by a movie star? (Spoiler alert - it wasn’t Zendaya.)

In the fourth laugh-out-loud book from Adam Kay and Henry Paker, you’ll learn all about the coolest, grossest and most ridiculous inventions in the world. You’ll meet the queen who used the first ever toilet, learn why margarine used to be full of maggots and find out why Ancient Greeks wiped their bums on dinner plates. Oh, and hopefully some slightly more useful facts as well…

An A to Kay to Z of the random, ridiculous and revolutionary inventions that changed our lives. (And some that definitely didn't . . .)
