{"product_id":"land-and-water-transportation-brown-bear-books-9781936333424","title":"Land and Water Transportation","description":"The history of transportation dates back to people's first use of animals, perhaps 8,000 years ago. The crucial inventsion of the wheel and the axle enabled people to move heavier loads. Boats with sails allowed wind-driven movement over long distances of ocean without the need for large teams of rowers. And the development of steam engines, and then internal combustion, enabled fast transit over land and sea. This book looks at the technological advances that have made all this possible-and the inventors whose inspiration has helped shape our world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brown Bear Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1936333422\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781936333424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Facts at Your Fingertips\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 8.10w x 0.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2012 pg. 47\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2013 pg. 153 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw","brand":"Brown Bear Books","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":48450061009151,"sku":"9781936333424","price":44.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_41b19820-e704-437a-b4f4-f062d20f19b9.jpg?v=1777266052","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/land-and-water-transportation-brown-bear-books-9781936333424","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
