Picture books are often the first place children meet the wider world, yet we rarely consider who writes them-or the lasting impression they leave. I created The Big Questions series to make big topics exciting, age-appropriate, and genuinely engaging, without ever talking down to children.In The Big Questions: What is a Ship?, kids set sail through maritime history for children and the science of how ships work-from the earliest boats and rafts to today's cargo ships and cruise ships, and onward to the future.Inside, you'll explore: Ships and boats through time - from early rafts to mighty sailing shipsViking longships and fearless voyages across rough seasExplorers and ocean travel that connected the worldPirates (fact vs legend) and life on the high seas (handled age-appropriately)The rise of steamships and modern naval ships / warshipsThe world of container ships and global trade routesSubmarines for kids - diving beneath the waves into deep-sea mysteryThe biggest, fastest, most surprising ships ever builtThe future of transportation-what the ships of tomorrow might look likePerfect for ages 5-12 (and a brilliant pick for classrooms, homeschooling, STEM learning, and bedtime reading). If your child loves transportation books, ocean facts, engineering, history, and how-things-work discoveries, this is the ship book they'll want to reread.Grab your copy today-and let your child's curiosity sail beyond the horizon.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/831/458/9798314580172_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "10.99", "online_price" : "10.99", "our_price" : "10.99", "club_price" : "10.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
