Summary
Have you ever started on a journey toward a destination but did not find it? Instead, you discovered something else that was interesting? Did you realize the toothpaste tube, Pepsi, crepes, and safety pin were all discovered by accident?
With fun illustrations for every story!
This book covers fascinating origin stories of 55 everyday items that were invented by accident; that is, the inventor did not expect to make the product when the product was discovered.
Not only will this book share amazing stories about everyday products, but it will also inspire you. We all encounter things that go wrong, and this book reminds us that when life gives lemons, we can make lemonade. (Seriously, pink lemonade was made by accident—listen to the story inside.)
Each story is written to encourage kids and adults to be curious and be inspired to create.
In this book, you will find out about:
- Pepsi was originally called Brad’s Drink
- What is the food fit for a king?
- How forgetfulness lead to the invention of ivory soap?
- An accidentally on purpose action created the record player
- The invention of the gasoline pump
- And more....
Not only does this book provide stories of how everyday items came to be, but it will also likely enhance one’s own problem-solving skills, foster creative thinking, and provide inspiration.
Who knows? You too may make an accidental discovery one day.
If you like to inspire your child to be creative or be curious, get this book today!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The upbeat narration and engaging stories make it perfect for family listening. It’s a wonderful way to spark curiosity and encourage kids to think about the world around them in a new light. I highly recommend it for curious young minds!
