Travel around the world by yacht, tram, train, unicycle, jetpack, camel... any way you can imagine, in this non-fiction children's book.
Every mode of transport is part of a charming scene. See how astronauts travel around space, watch surfers ride the waves at the beach, and race to an emergency with the firefighters. Illustrator Katy Halford's beautiful drawings brings the scenes to life and fun complementary facts will prompt discussion and laughter between readers. How would you choose to travel? Donkey, pedalo, moon buggy? From the small to the big, the familiar to obscure, take your pick from the amazing 80 shown in DK's Around the Way in 80 Ways!

Craft meets STEAM in these lively books that will help you design,
build and create! Get ready to build your very own transport hub!
From a maglev train to a cable car to a helicopter, step-by-step
projects will give you all the instructions you need to make every
element a model transport hub requires. Learn about principles of
design and engineering as well as craft techniques to unleash your
creativity! Every project has been designed to work using things
you can find lying around at home, like disposable containers and
packaging, and basic art and craft equipment. Why not check out the
other books in the Maker Models series? Each book focuses on a
place and will go through creating various parts of the structure.
You could learn to make a space centre, a fairground, a transport
hub, a mini-garden and biosphere or a theatre and film set, and all
the elements that constitute them. For children aged 9+, this

and a good inspiration for DT classes and clubs.
