    It's the middle of the night, and a young man has just finished building his very first car, only to find it's too big to fit through the door of his workshop. Meet Henry Ford, a farm boy obsessed with machines who didn't invent the car but figured out how to build one that almost everyone could afford. The big idea: a giant job becomes possible when you break it into small, simple steps. And an idea you can share with the whole world is how you change it. A true story for curious kids, ages 6 and up. Part of Little Mavericks.
