Accidental Inventions in the Kitchen was my favorite chapter, since so many of the inventions featured are items I use on a daily basis. My grandmother loved the Corningware story when I shared it with her, as this was something she remembers being very impressed and pleased when it became available. Just goes to show that adults of all ages, as well as kids, will love this listen!
