Illustrated by
Bee Johnson.
The inventive Shine-a-Light series here focuses on perennially kid-popular technology topics. Blocky, colorful illustrations of trains and construction sites reveal hints of behind-the-scenes details when held to light; turn the page and see a black-and-white illustration of the full scene inside the train car, engine, skyscraper, wall, etc. Vehicles and machines are defined in each book's appended glossary. Review covers these titles: On the Construction Site and On the Train.
