Item Description

The World of Transportation awaits with this book collection!

Go! The Whole World of Transportation - An exploration of land, air, and water transport peels back the roof of a jumbo jet, follows a day in the life of Grand Central Terminal, pulls apart a classic car, and more to give astonishing facts and detailed descriptions of modern transportation methods.

Fasten your seatbelts for plenty of transportation thrills. The skilled team that completed this jam-packed compilation of facts and photos traveled 116,545 miles. On their visits to countries across the globe, they took 2000 bus, 10 ferry, and 3000 train rides to document this handsome volume. A fighter jet, a red sports car, and a speed boat race across the eye-catching red, yellow, green, and blue striped holographic cover. The volume is divided into three chunky sections with data and photos grouped into categories. Each section overflows with crisp, well-composed photos that range in size from foldout spreads to pictures the size of postage stamps. Photo captions swell with factual details. A time line of historical developments for each mode of transportation opens each section.

  • Recommended for ages 10 to 17 (Grade level 5 to 12)
