"Pages bustle with activity, often marked with a certain zany humor." -- Booklist

In her trademark vivacious comic- book style, Marcia Williams honors the fine folks who brought us the printing press, the steam train, the electric light, the TV, and more. Interspersed are snapshots of more than one hundred other inventions, from toilet paper to sliced bread, to inspire the inventor in every young reader.

Back matter includes an index of inventors and an index of inventions.

Marcia Williams has written and illustrated many books in her highly successful and hilarious comic-strip style. Of Hooray For Inventors!, she says, "It is awesome to think that it's only comparatively recently that we've had electric light, yet now we find it almost impossible to imagine life without it. The utter darkness that surrounded people would have continued to cloak us without . . . inventors! Hooray for them!" Marcia Williams lives in London.
