Buckle up! This interactive and colourful atlas takes young readers on a hands-on journey all around the world. Discover the stories behind the world-s most iconic vehicles, including the countries where they were invented and the places that they-re strongly associated with.
Each page turned brings a new continent and its famous forms of transport to life. Discover how the first aeroplane took flight in America, the speed at which Japan-s shinkansen bullet trains travel, and when the first hot air balloon floated into the sky of France. Plus we-ll set sail to learn about the longships rowed by Scandinavia-s vikings and the icebreakers that are used to plough through Antarctica-s sea ice.
Featuring over 100 flaps that lift to reveal fun facts and the inner workings of vehicles, this beautifully illustrated atlas will turbocharge kids- interest in the world of transport and travel.
