Description
"This partly true, partly fictitious book from the wonderfully wacky mind of Swedish illustrator Carl Johanson is a fantastic collection of planes and other zany forms of air transportation. From fighter jets, hot air balloons and hang gliders, to flying arks, abstract rockets and carrot planes, All Kinds of Planes is a playful mix of existing and imaginary that can be enjoyed by both children and adults."--
