#ALD12 @findingada – Electronic’s coloring book with Ladyada

Ladyada’s E is for Electronics

Ladyada’s “E is for Electronics” is a coloring book adventure with electronic components and their inventors.

Makers of all ages can learn, color, and share common parts and historical figures throughout history. Explore the world of electronics with Ladyada as your guide!

Here’s an excerpt:

“A diode lets electrons flow in only one direction. It works like a switch: when current is flowing one way, the switch is on, but when current tries to flow the other way, the switch turns off. Sir John Ambrose Fleming is best known for inventing the diode, originally called the kenotron.”

Coloring book dimensions: 8.5in x 5.5in

MADE IN THE USA!

Ladyada’s E is for Electronics

This is the first ever open-source electronics coloring book! Adafruit’s coloring books are manufactured in the USA by a family owned and operated business, we use non-toxic soy based, water soluble and environmentally friendly printing supplies. The equipment used is solar powered! Adafruit knows you have a lot of choices as to where you spend your money and time, we hope our open-source values, commitment to green technologies and partners in the USA helps make the decision easier and fun!
