The first in a new series that takes readers behind the scenes to discover exactly how an airport works.

Airports plunges readers into the busy and complex world of an international airport to discover exactly how it works.

Starting with the urgent and sometimes tricky-to-answer questions a child might ask - Why can't I ride on the bag carousel? Can a body scanner see me naked? Do suitcases get mixed up? Can you take snakes on a plane? - this book provides detailed and honest answers, to both entertain and ease the stresses and anxieties of first-time airport visitors.

With entertaining and hyper-detailed illustrations by Maxim Usik, this book presents airports as they've never been seen before: gateways to adventure as fascinating to explore and visually intriguing as the locations the planes jet off to! And equally as interesting to the adult reader as it is to the child!

Marking the first in a new series that will also explore TV Studios and Hospitals, amongst other locations, this fun and entertaining non-fiction book will demand repeat readings and serve as a brilliant reference book for schools and libraries as well.
