Izzy's Incredible Adventure
Can you help Izzy on her incredible adventure?
Along the way discover and explore how transport really works! Can a toaster make a hot air balloon rise? Why do space rockets need explosions? Can you make metal float? Finally meet the ultimate transport for land, water and air – the hovercraft?
