Rivers are the heart of people's lives in various countries, including Indonesia. Various local wisdoms of riverbank communities are the cause of the formation of people's thinking patterns and attitudes in carrying out scientific, technological, mathematical, and engineering (STEM) innovations. However, riverbank local wisdom and STEM learning are often considered a challenge in itself, taught separately, and receive less attention from science teachers. The purpose of this paper is to develop STEM learning based on riverbank local wisdom as outlined in learning books. Therefore, this paper will report on the use of research and development designs to produce an appropriate STEM learning book based on riverbank local wisdom. The feasibility assessment involved five experts on local wisdom and STEM learning. Suggestions and inputs from experts are taken into consideration in the revision of this book. The results of the feasibility show that the developed book has met the aspects of design, format, material, language, and innovation. Thus, STEM learning books based on local riverside wisdom are feasible and can be continued in the implementation test in the classroom. © 2023 The Authors.
