Over a thousand vehicles from road, rail, sea and air are catalogued in this DK visual guide to the machines that move people and goods.
Entries run from early steam locomotives and vintage cars to cruise liners, supersonic jets and modern aircraft, each shown with photography, cutaway diagrams and a short note on what made it notable. The arrangement lets a reader follow one form of transport through its history or compare machines across categories, and the writing stays brief enough for younger readers to handle alone.
On the shelf, this one offers:
• More than a thousand vehicles photographed and described
• Cutaway diagrams showing how engines and structures work
• Road, rail, marine and air transport covered in one book
• Short entries pitched at readers of about seven and upward
A good match for transport-minded children, parents and teachers, published by DK and stocked by Boipoka.
