A new addition to the See Inside series about ships throughout history from Viking longboats to Spanish galleons, ironclads to aircraft carriers.Age 6+
A brilliant flap book for older children exploring ships through the ages. Stunning illustrations with over 90 flaps reveal the insides of historical and modern-day ships along with fascinating facts about them. Ships include a Viking longboat, a cannon-firing Man-of-war, 19th century steamships, submarines, cruise liners and an enormous aircraft carrier. To illustrate the size of an aircraft carrier, the scene opens out in one large flap with even more facts beneath. With internet links to further information about ships.
