Description

Learn all about spacecraft, from the first space capsules to space planes and space shuttles.

Have you ever wondered where the crew all sit inside a tank, or what a jet engine looks like behind the turbine blades Well these six books will help you find out just that! Find out something amazing about each vehicle and then turn the page to see it sliced in two where its innermost secrets will be revealed. Simple text and large labels and captions will make the bite-sized pieces of information appeal to a wide range of reading abilities, and the artwork is both friendly and accessible.

What's Inside - perfect for inquisitive, machine-mad readers who love the details of how vehicles work. Suitable for readers aged 8+.
