Trains (Eye-Openers Series)
PreSchool-Grade 2-- Young train enthusiasts will find this slim volume right on track. Full-color photographs stretch across each double-page topic treatment. Printed on stiff paper, the text consists of four large-print sentences per chapter, so that only very basic information is given. A variety of freight and commuter trains are featured: a steam engine, high-speed train, crane and crocodile cars, switcher, and the Orient Express. The main illustration on each spread is a closeup photo of a model train. Details are crisp and clear. Other small boxed drawings show various parts of each train. Just the thing for young nonfiction readers. --Eldon Younce, Harper Elementary School, KSCopyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.
