Mattie Knight grew up in New England in the nineteenth century. After inheriting her father's toolbox, she began to sketch and make her own inventions: a kite for her brothers, sleds for the boys in town, and even a foot warmer for her widowed mother. Years later, working in the mills and factories, Margaret invented a revolutionary machine. But could a girl become a real inventor? Full-color illustrations. Author's note. Bibliography.
