Learning by making is an invaluable experience. Tamiya's Educational Construction Series offers hobbyists the chance to make simple models that give examples of how mechanisms work. This assembly kit constructs a dolphin that swims under the power of the included underwater gearbox and utilizes a float and fin-shaped rudder.
