Green, Sara. Transformers.

Green, Sara. Transformers. Scholastic/Childrens Press 2017  24p   $25.95      ISBN 98-0-531-23807-3  elem/ms  Nonfiction  VG-BN

Who hasn’t loved playing with Transformers over the last 30-some years? The history of the company, with its signature toys and its connections to comics, cartoons, movies and conventions, is covered in this densely packed book of facts, charts, and photos. At times the print is small, but well worth a close look, as so much information is presented on how the toy has changed over the years.  Great for browsing or use in a report about a famous invention.  This book includes a glossary, a timeline, an index and lists for further reading.    

Brands We Know is a series that features 23 well-known brands that are used and recognized by young readers. Each book includes great photos, information, a glossary, a timeline, an index and lists for further reading. From food to toys to technology, a great series about the history of an invention. Gr. 2-7.
