For sale in U.S. and Canada only-- In Engines, inhabitants of Mammoth Island look for an alternative to mammoths to speed up pizza delivery. They decide to experiment with different engines and discover how each works -- from simple rockets to turbofan jet engines to gasoline engines. Comparing the advantages and drawbacks of these internal combustion engines, the islanders determine which one will serve their business best and ensure their pizzas are delivered on time. Part of the multivolume series The Way Things Work, based on the best-selling book by David Macaulay. Includes a Teacher's Guide.

 

"...The fun story, science, and process of problem-solving are given equal attention in this well-rounded presentation, making for a solid educational program that's also genuinely entertaining...Highly recommended. Editor's Choice."- Video Librarian (Sept/Oct 2003)

"The series is humorous, informative and very educational. Explanations are clear and relevant, with neccesary diagrams to explain exactly how things work...These are exceptional physics videos that merit a place in all educational collections."- School Library Journal (August 2003)
