A boy, his dog, and a homemade go-cart spark a backyard full of laughter, learning, and discovery!When six-year-old Wyatt and his scruffy Sheepadoodle puppy Rafi decide to build a go-cart from spare wood, old wheels, and big imagination, they don't just create speed-they discover science in motion.From wobbly test runs to wild turns, every bump teaches them about balance, friction, and momentum (and how not to crash into the flower beds!).With help from Grandpa Vern's clever advice and Ellie's careful note-taking, the duo learns that science isn't about getting everything right-it's about curiosity, teamwork, and trying again.Set in a quiet North Carolina neighborhood bursting with color and warmth, The Go-Cart Gizmo blends STEM learning with humor and heart. It's the perfect start to the Rafi & Wyatt's Backyard Adventures series, where every story turns everyday play into a new experiment.✨ Readers Will LearnHow motion, gravity, and friction work in simple, fun waysWhy mistakes are part of real discoveryHow kindness, friendship, and persistence make science exciting
