Inspired by the best-selling books by Ashley Spires, and published by Kids Can Press, The Most Magnificent Thing is about a little girl who perseveres through a frustrating creative process. The picture book became the keystone children's book of the maker movement shortly after it was released in 2014.

 

With over 900,000 copies sold to date of The Most Magnificent Thing and its sequel The Most Magnificent Idea, the book has been translated into 22 languages worldwide and has been featured in the STEAM curriculum of many schools as an introduction to STEAM.

 

Most recently, Kids Can Press has published the latest installment in the immensely popular book series - a delightful twist on the traditional vocabulary book. The Most Magnificent Maker’s A to Z features the beloved characters from The Most Magnificent Thing as they take readers from A to Z, defining all the words they need to know about making.
