Trains Can Float: and Other Fun Facts

Shirley J.              Juvenile Non-Fiction                     Fun Facts about trains, tunnels and more

Trains Can Float: and Other Fun Facts (the Did You Know? Series) by Laura Lyn DiSiena and        Hannah Elliot     32 pages

Not to be confused, the book isn't talking about in water but actually seeming to "float" or hover above the train tracks due to magnets.   So many fun things to learn here.   In the Netherlands they build tunnels for animals to cross over/above areas with lots of traffic so the animals have access without endangering themselves trying to cross heavily trafficked roads, etc.   It tells about the longest suspension bridge which is a mile and a quarter long.   That would be scary!  So many more fun things packed in this book, it is great.  I always love to learn new things.   I recommend this one for kindergarteners on up.  Adults will enjoy learning new things, too!
