They're called Indestructibles. They could just as well be called
the unstoppables! As in they don't stop selling, don't stop
pleasing, and don't stop filling an essential need for new parents:
a book made for the way babies "read," with their hands and mouths.
And now this bestselling series - which ships over 1 million copies
every year - is welcoming two new titles based on two of the most
popular songs that parents love to sing along with their youngest.
Each is illustrated in a bright, lively, colourful style, by the
artist Vanja Karguli. Moving from country to town, The Wheels on
the Bus sends parents and their kids on an adventure that everyone
loves to act out, from the wipers that go swish swish swish and the
horn that goes beep beep beep to the people that go shh shh shh to
the babies who cry wah wah wah. As they say, it's all about the
journey, not the destination.
How does a plane move through the air? What is turbulence? What do
those lines on the runways mean? All these questions and many more
are answered in this gorgeously illustrated history of planes and
flight. The book opens with a basic introduction to plane anatomy
and shows how aircrafts have developed over the ages. Readers will
then learn about aerodynamics, the mechanics of wing shape and
lift, and how ailerons, propellers, and flaps work. There's even a
section on communications systems, runway design, and GPS. Profiles
of famous historic planes illustrate basic principles throughout
the book. Readers will find out about record-breaking flights
across continents and oceans; how "flying wings" evolved into the
B-2 bomber; and where the world's most treacherous runways are
located. A section on experimental aircraft looks at zeppelins,
flying cars, and the fate of the Concorde jet. Jan Van Der Veken's
lushly colored, retro drawings detail everything from plane design
to the physics of flight and provide the perfect companion to his
engaging text. Budding aviators will linger over every detail of
this information-packed book that serves both to demystify and
celebrate the miracle of flight.
