Trains Can Float: And Other Fun Facts

32 pp. | Little Simon | August, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4814-0281-1 $17.99 | Paper ISBN 978-1-4814-0280-4 $6.99 | Ebook ISBN 978-1-4814-0282-8
(4) K-3 Did You Know? series. Illustrated by Pete Oswald & Aaron Spurgeon. These numerous bites of transportation-related information appear in a catchy Q-and-A format that is only occasionally distorted to achieve the gee-whiz factor (e.g., the illustration of wildlife crossing bridges relates rather confusingly to the text). Colorful cartoon animals aptly illustrate the information with a light touch, and the direct-address format and colloquial style are accessible. "Fun Facts" are appended.
