Transportation Around the World - Library Binding

by Ellen Lawrence (Author)

Perhaps you take the bus to school or ride in a car. But imagine traveling to school on your family's horse and cart or paddling to school in a canoe. This book explores the many different ways in which children and their families travel during their everyday lives.

• Discover what it's like to ride to school in a tiny rickshaw bus in India that's powered by the driver riding a bike or pulling the bus on foot!
• Join a family of Sami reindeer herders who travel from A to B on snowmobiles.
• Ride on the world's fastest train in China or zoom across the snow in Greenland on a sled pulled by powerful dogs.
• The book includes a world map that pinpoints where every story comes from.

Supported with stunning, detailed photos, this book is an engaging nonfiction read and a fascinating exploration of transportation around the world.
