Some vehicles work on farms. Others go into space. They may even dive deep below the ocean. No matter where they go, vehicles get the job done. Vehicles on the Job looks at these machines in action. Discover how vehicles help save lives, construct buildings, and make scientific discoveries using science, technology, engineering, and math. Each book contains a glossary, an index, and places to go for more information.

Simple but effective book. Read it with my nephew who is mad about rescue vehicles. He loved looking at the pictures and talking about all the different things that he could see in the vehicles. He was fascinated by how the vehicles in the book looked different to those that we have here in the UK. His favourite was the fire truck.

The book is good for teaching the younger ones about different rescue vehicles.

Thank you NetGalley and Norwood House Press for my digital review copy in returne for an unbiased review.

Great pictures! The definitions highlighted are also in the back of the book for quick study. Great for a quiz.Types of rescue vehicles are explained and why different situations need certain vehicles. Good consideration of safety issues.

A great book for early elementary school readers!!!

Many thanks to Norwood House Press and NetGalley for a delightful read.

Very well written for young children to understand. Uses actual pictures rather than illustrations, which will make it more "real" for youngsters. Also like the glossary at the end.
