Description

The Spectacular Science of Vehicles is guaranteed to answer all those tricky science questions that children ask about cars, trains, ships and planes - and that parents often struggle to answer - such as: - How does a Maglev train float on air - What happens when you break the sound barrier - How do modern airports and container ports work - And many, many more! The bright, busy artworks will encourage science-hungry children to pore over every detail and truly get to grips with the science that underpins everything around us. Information is delivered on multiple levels, allowing readers to dip in and out at speed, or take a deep dive into their favourite subjects.
