Description
This book describes what is inside an automobile and how it works.
Quick Summary
Inside a Car takes readers under the hood and behind the dashboard to discover the hidden world of automotive engineering that makes vehicles zoom down the road. Kids will love seeing exactly what happens when they press the gas pedal, how brakes bring a rolling vehicle to a halt, and the secret systems that keep cars running smoothly. If your kid loves the hands-on discovery format of the "Eyewitness" guides or the "Magic School Bus" exploring inside things, they'll buckle up for this mechanical adventure. Perfect for ages 8-12 in grades 3-7 who tinker with toys, ask "how does that work," or dream about driving someday.
