About this ebook
A self-taught inventor never stops following the call to imagine, discover, create. From the time he is a small boy, Franz is curious about machines and how they work. He wants to try to build his own. Even though he’s needed to work on the family farm, and later marries and has a family of his own, Franz never gives up. He learns and tries and tests his ideas on his own. And though many don’t understand or appreciate it, when Franz completes his magnificent, elaborate World Machine, he finally finds an audience that recognizes his genius. For every child longing to create the most amazing thing, Franz is sure to inspire their vision.
