Other editions of book On the Plane

Watch a plane get ready for take-off with this beautifully illustrated interactive book! By simply holding the book up to the light, or shining a torch behind each page, young readers will be able to discover the hidden secrets of an airport, how pilots prepare a plane for flight, and how cabin crew help passengers to enjoy their journey.The innovative see-through feature fulfils a similar function to lift-the-flap books, but has the added interactive dimension of the child being able to see both the surface and the hidden picture at the same time.

What can you spot at the airport today? Shine a light behind the page and see … From the airport staff who X-ray the baggage and check passports, to the pilots who fly the planes, each page-turn takes you behind the scenes of an exciting plane trip. With well over 200,000 copies of the series sold, we are thrilled with our latest Shine-A-Light books. Author Carron Brown has been a children's non-fiction editor and writer for more than 16 years. She's a keen explorer of the small worlds around her, whether that's watching things grow in her tiny garden, or sitting On the Plane. Or imagining what's happening On the Space Station. The amazing see-through pages in this gorgeously illustrated non-fiction series offer benefits similar to lift-the-flaps books, (that is, they're great for early development, they deal with the idea of object permanence), but our Secrets books have the added interactive dimension of the child being able to see the surface and the hidden picture at the same time.Both a visual treat and lots of fun, all of our Shine-a-Light books also offer a glossary and additional information about their subjects, making them non-fiction gift books like no other.
