Review
The Fix-It Man exhibits excellent problem solving abilities, an engineer skill set, and a good heart. Joshua is an endearing character who loves to fix things around the house and appreciates his little sister. The text is printed in a clear font that is manageable for early readers. The publisher's information however is among the smallest and necessitates a magnifying glass to discern content.
Teachers will find this a perfect fit for their STEM and STREAM programs. Mechanical drawings, cartoon characters and graphic novel spreads combine to make this an interesting and attractive addition for any library serving children.
Overall Book Score: very good
