Tinker & Max Tinker take curious kids behind the scares to explore the engineering that brings Halloween monsters to life.Young readers will discover: - How motors, gears, cranks, and linkages create movement- What servos do-and why not every animatronic uses them- How wires carry power and signals through a machine- How sensors and triggers can start an animatronic's performance- How controllers coordinate movement, lights, and sound- How speakers give monsters their voices- Why timing, surprise, scenery, and character can make a scare work- How engineers prototype, test, manufacture, package, and improve animatronics- How to investigate a machine without taking it apartAlong the way, readers examine memorable Spirit Halloween animatronics including Jumping Spider, Grim, Wolfie, Nightcrawler, and Wacky Mole, using each one to investigate a different engineering idea.They'll also follow an animatronic from the first idea to the finished Halloween-store monster, build a simple cardboard mechanism of their own, explore an animatronic anatomy guide, and use an Animatronic Investigator Checklist to investigate real machines.Written for kids ages 7-12, this illustrated nonfiction adventure combines Halloween, engineering, robotics, history, and hands-on curiosity without talking down to young readers.Because understanding how a monster works doesn't make it less amazing.Sometimes it makes it even cooler.Watch like a fan.
