This illustrated book for children shows you how things work. Look
inside the human body, explore the magic of Venice, and take a tour
around a movie studio - and much more!
Part of a unique series, More Incredible Cross-sections is Stephen
Biesty at the top of his game. In this updated edition with a refreshed,
contemporary style, he gives readers an exploded view of 12 objects,
places, landmarks, and modes of transport. But look closer! In every
picture is an alien who has lost his way: can you find him?
As you pore over Stephen Biesty's superbly detailed pages, you will also
discover loads of awesome facts. Did you know that steam engines were
notoriously difficult to stop, leading to frequent accidents? Or that
people at an Antarctic research base rely on supplies from an aircraft's
parachute drops during winter?
From windmills to cities, airports to space stations, More Incredible
Cross-sections is for curious minds of any age interested in finding
out how our amazing world works.
