内容简介 From building skyscrapers to loading freight trains, from tearing down old houses to mining fuel, heavy equipment is everywhere! Children will enjoy taking a close-up look at these important machines, including terrific tractors, bucket wheel excavators, and even a super space shuttle crawler—the largest self-powered tracked vehicle in the world. Great-looking and large shots showcase extra-big tires, a tractor’s advanced hydraulic system, a control stick for steering, a bulldozer blade, and the long, wide tracks of a crawler crane. And kids will really dig into fascinating facts and information on heavy machine achievements such as building the Chunnel, the longest tunnel on earth.
编辑推荐 "Excavate some room on the odd-sized shelves for books in the vehicle-themed Up Close series, which are packed with full-color photographs...many of which open out into eye-popping gatefolds...[a] terrific mix of fun technical vocabulary and trivia ripe for sharing."--Booklist (starred review)
