Nature Did It First: Engineering Through Biomimicry

Have a problem? More than likely, nature has already solved it? Look outside and you will find a world full of amazing engineering designs that have inspired many of the products we use every day. Like studying cockleburs to build Velcro® zippers, or how the mechanisms allowing gecko’s feet to stick to glass has been used to develop new adhesives to close surgical wounds. A beautifully illustrated introduction to biomimicry for children ages 5 to 11.
