Books about inventing for a screen-free summer

To celebrate the second week of our IBC campaign, ‘Screen-free summer’, this handpicked, STEM-themed list will get children excited about designing and building their own physical inventions, a highly beneficial play experience!

From gadgets and gizmos to vehicles and robots, this fantastic list of ingenious, inclusive books includes fictional and true-life stories, perfect for budding inventors and curious little minds.

Children’s imaginations and ideas will soar while reading titles from this diverse and inspirational collection, while also realising that anyone can be a scientist — you don't need a white coat and a beard to be an engineer or an architect.

There’s something here for every reader aged 2 to 9. Fun and thoughtful motivating reads to keep children off their screens, instead freeing their creative, planning, experimental and problem-solving skills — all while having fun imagining and inventing!
