Description



Book Synopsis



No one knows who exactly invented the wheel, but in the inventive hands of illustrator Tom Schamp young readers will have great fun learning about all the ways wheels have rolled through history.

From prehistoric carts to cars of tomorrow, this big, fun book takes a historic journey through a world where everything has wheels, from the Trojan horse to the Harley Davidson; from the stagecoach and the steam train to the Vespa and the Ferrari; from skateboards to electric scooters.

Every spread of this deliriously entertaining and educational book is filled with Tom Schamp's quirky and colorful art. His sly, subtle texts will make older readers smile. Younger readers will return again and again to these playfully crowded pages to discover what different countries' emergency vehicles look like; to learn about buses of every imaginable dimension and weight; and to choose which bike they'd use to win a race.

Each viewing will reveal charming new details that are as absurdly funny as they are educationally rewarding.

Explicit Picture Content - Do Not Recommend

We checked this book out from the library and were aghast when we found an explicit picture of a male on the 2nd page. It clearly shows his male body parts. Disgusted this would be added to a child’s book. Very unnecessary.
