The Boo-Boos That Changed the World: A True Story About an Accidental Invention (Really!)

I borrowed this book from the library and read it to my granddaughter via Skype. Months later she wanted to hear it again, so I borrowed it again and also bought a copy for her as a gift. She loved it, and shared it with her school friends. The author tells a great story about the invention of Band Aids. (What child doesn't love Band Aids?)

7 year old grandson loves this book! He found it interesting and likes how the idea for Band-Aids came about. Shows you can do anything when you put your mind to it and don't stop trying.

We read this book at least once a week. Well written and informational for an item all kids can relate to!

This is a cute book that reminds us how most inventions come from necessity.

A cleverly written and beautifully illustrated book. It’s a history lesson told with wit and charm that captures the attention of kids and adults alike. The pictures are as heartwarming as the story. My 7 and 4 year olds loved it, and so did I. It’s a great add to our home library!

This book was purchased for a STEM lesson on inventors. This book was a good discussion starter and was well received.

It was a fun biography. My second graders really enjoyed learning how this every day item was created.

Loved, loved the book. Definitely should have in your school library.
