What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

From bestselling author Kelly Corrigan and her daughter debut author Claire Corrigan Lichty comes a new picture book about a determined young inventor! Marianne’s days are filled with schedules, structure, and soccer. There’s just one problem: Marianne is a maker. She needs every minute of her weekends to scheme and dream, draw and design, to build and rebuild! This is the story of how a creator with a crackerjack imagination finds a not-so-great way to skip practice and create her masterpiece. But will her dad understand? 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.
