Description

If Rube's inventions are any indication, ';normal' means something very different in the Goldberg household. For Rube, up is down, in is out, and the simplest path to accomplishing an everyday tasklike brushing his teeth or getting dressedis a humorously complicated one. Follow Rube as he sets out on a typical school day, overcomplicating each and every step from the time he wakes up in the morning until the time he goes to bed at night. This book features fourteen inventions, each depicting an interactive sequence whose purpose is to help Rube accomplish mundane daily tasks: a simple way to get ready for school, to make breakfast, to do his homework, and so much more.

acknowledgments

First and foremost, I want to thank Charles Kochman-my brilliant

editor at Abrams, who had a vision for this book long before I did.

Charlie, you are my kindred spirit and the reason for all of this. Thank

you for always having faith in Rube. To Ed Steckley, my friend and the

brave artist who took on the tall task of assuming Rube s hand-you

are masterful and nimble, and your spirit for the work brings out the

best in everyone, and most especially what s on the page. Then there s

Joseph Herscher, also a dear friend, who thinks like my grandfather

and whose humor, elegance, and grace are evident in every machine he

designs and every machine he builds. Joseph, I may be the keeper of

the flame, but you

are

the flame. Others I must thank who helped get

this book from our minds and into your hands are: Laura Nolan, Bob

Bookman, Susan Van Metre, Andrew Smith, Chad Beckerman, Tree

Abraham, Samantha Hoback, Alison Gervais, Jill Smith, Jon Reichman,

Dr. Shawn Jordan, Drew Wischer, Kathleen Felix, Janine Napierkowski,

Marilyn Bellock, and Brand Central s Mark Otero. Lastly, to my Papa

Rube -it takes a small army of creatives to re-create and imitate what

you did alone. How on earth did you do it?
