With a machine that's big and powerful with clanking metal parts? There are machines like that. But others have only a few moving parts. In fact, some machines are so simple that they don't seem like machines at all--like the wheel, the lever, and the pulley. These machines can make work easy--even if you're trying to lift a lion!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>A basic introduction to levers, wheels, and pulleys.

The hand-lettered text identifies technical terms such as fulcrum, force, friction, and other such words (also included in a glossary).--<em>School Library Journal</em></p><br><br><p>This book is an introduction to three simple machines: the lever, the pulley, and the wheel.
