Trains and Railroads. Children's Encyclopedia (Chevostik) (Paperback)

In a new children's encyclopedia featuring Chevostik, the beloved characters will learn about railway transport. They will discover the different types of trains and whether tracks can be laid on ice and underwater, explore how railway stations have operated throughout history, and take a peek into the driver's cab.

What different types of trains are there? Why is the road called a railway? Can tracks be laid on ice or underwater?

In this new book in the children's encyclopedia series, Chevostik and Uncle Kuzya will learn about the history and design of trains, railways, and subways. They will travel along the world's longest railway line, attend the opening of the first London Underground station, and visit a carriage factory. They will discover how a stagecoach differs from a charabanc (and what that even is!), why trains do not collide, and how cargo is transported by rail.

Our heroes will also learn about railway professions and even take a peek into the driver's cab.

Who is Chevostik?

Chevostik is a charming character from a popular audio project. Today, children know him from the encyclopedia series.

The series continues to release books that explain how the world works. Children absorb information much better when it is presented by a fictional character. That is why boys and girls love these kinds of encyclopedias so much. Together with Uncle Kuzya, Chevostik embarks on amazing journeys into the worlds of science: physics, chemistry, astronomy, anatomy, geology, and more. He tells children about great geographical discoveries, the conquest of space, and magical chemical transformations.
