Description
Capturing an engineers creative vision and mind for detail, this fully illustrated picture book biography sheds light on how the American inventor George Ferris defied gravity and seemingly impossible odds to invent the worlds most iconic amusement park attraction, the Ferris wheel. A fun, fact-filled text by Kathryn Gibbs Davis combines with Gilbert Fords dazzling full-color illustrations to transport readers to the 1893 Worlds Fair, where George Ferris and his big, wonderful wheel lifted passengers to the skies for the first time.
