Izzy Gizmo LOVES to
invent, and she’s just been
invited to Technoff Isle’s Genius
Convention. The creator of the
best machine will win coveted
admittance to the Genius Guild.
But with fearsome competitor,
Abi von Lavish, getting the best
of Izzy at every turn, how will
she ever come up with a plan to
take first place?
A follow-up to the beloved
original, Izzy Gizmo returns
(together with Grandpa and her
crow friend, Fixer) in another
wonderfully exuberant and
feisty tale of try, try, and try
again. Brought to life with
charmingly zany art, this is
a perfect choice for aspiring
inventors and little engineers.

of the fridge, or herding her two
children. She lives in London.
