Flying: Just Plane Fun

This book should really say it's written for 5 to 95 year olds as it appeals to all ages. The book provides valuable information about flying, but in a format that's colorful and humorous with drawings and photographs and quirky descriptions. Kids love it. Parents and especially grandparents enjoy that it's the story of a grandpa and his grandchild having an exciting day together flying. The adults I've shared it with say that after reading this book, they finally understand how flight works.

A delightful picturebook about how planes stay up in the air

An adventurous read which is most especially recommended for young people with a budding interest in aircraft, aviation, and the mechanics and physics thereof, Flying: Just Plane Fun is an original and enthusiastically recommended addition for family, school, and community library collections.
