K-3World's Biggest series.
Large photographs (some out of focus) and statistics about size and speed dominate each spread, which superficially highlights one kind of vehicle or coaster. The images best capture the drama when shown in context or alongside people for scale. Vehicle lovers will enjoy learning specific names such as the Caterpillar 797B dump truck and the Airbus Beluga. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these World's Biggest titles: Freaky-Big Airplanes, Heart-Stopping Roller Coasters, Huge Earthmovers, and Titanic Trucks.
