About this ebook

Wings takes readers on a fact-packed flight over a fascinating subject.

Written by Tracey Turner, Wings offers a bird’s-eye view of the first aeroplanes, the fastest jet planes, beetles, birds, winged horses, flying dragons – even winged unicorns. There's fun, easy-to-read information on wings of all kinds, including plenty of STEM material, presented in a mixture of text and speech bubbles that's perfect for readers aged 7 plus.

With Fatti Burke’s stylish and colourful illustrations, Wings is a wonderful journey of discovery. And don't miss Wheels - the other title in this fantastically fascinating series!
