Detailed & interesting fact book for young plane lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Each book in the "Eye Openers" series treats one subject, e.g., trains, trucks or airplanes. The books are divided into 2-page sections, across the lower half of which appears a large photo-like picture of a particular type of plane, train, etc. A short text on the left page identifies and describes briefly this particular vehicle. Smaller drawings across the upper half of the pages show details of the vehicle and its uses.I was disappointed at first with the series based on its recommendation for children in the 0-to-3 years of age category. The subject matter and the format in which it is presented are more appropriate for older children."Planes" was a well-done example of this series. The illustrations of details point out features that are interesting and fun to identify on the larger drawing. In addition, most of the features that appear in the detail drawings also appear and are explained in the text.
