Hawkins, Emily and Tom Adams All Aboard the Discovery Express, illustrated by Tom Clohosy Cole.
PICTURE BOOK/INTERACTIVE. Quarto
Kids, 2017. $28. 9781847809902.
Welcome to Paris, France, 1937. Climb aboard the Discovery Express to take a
trip around the world and explore the wonders of transportation as it evolved
from Da Vinci’s fanciful musings and on to modern (for 1937) flight. Led by Nancy Delaney, you will follow
information and clues left behind by Professor Pendleton, who disappeared just
before departure.
A great “coffee table” book for an upper elementary child
who likes learning about transportation.
Lots of flaps to lift, historical information, and clues to solve to
find the professor. It is rather text
dense, but the illustrations help make it accessible.
