(3) 4-6 Adapted by Mary Beth Leatherdale. Illustrated by Josh Holinaty. This rousing volume celebrates Canadian inventions and achievements, from early history to today. Each spread features a single innovation, described in brief text and nearly monochromatic digital art, color-coded for its section ("Smarter," "Smaller," etc.). Well-organized conceptually and aptly ending with advice to future innovators, this book adheres to its patriotic objective, a useful counterpoint for U.S. audiences. Timeline.
