"A thoughtful role model for aspiring inventors."--Kirkus Reviews
Marianne's days are filled with schedules, structure, and soccer. There's just one problem: Marianne is a maker.

Told in delightful rhyme that bounces across George Sweetland's gorgeous collage-style illustrations (chock full of hidden gems,) Marianne the Maker is sure to kindle the creative spark that lives inside all of us.
