Abstract
Geonardo is an inventor like his parents and his ancestors before him. He lives in a house on a hill with his father and his daughter, Cleonardo Wren. Cleonardo is always in her father’s workshop helping him. As Geonardo is preparing for the town’s festival of inventions, Cleo Wren helps her father by handing him all sorts of sticky vines and treasures from the forest to help with his invention. When her “helping” seems unneeded, Cleo Wren decides to make her own workshop and inventions. When it comes time for the festival, Geonardo takes his invention and Cleo Wren takes hers. As Geonardo shows his invention at the festival, something goes terribly wrong! Thankfully, Cleo Wren is there to save the day. Father and daughter realize that they are a perfect team.
