Description
Written and designed for younger paper pilots, it has simpler planes with brighter, bolder graphics; games, activities, and fun aviation facts (the “A=Alpha, B=Bravo” pilots’ alphabet, as an example); and the whole lot kids wish to fold and fly. They’ll learn to design their very own planes, do stunts, and build a 3-D airport with stuff found around the home, and they are going to discover that the largest aircraft ever flown wasn’t a plane at all. There are 16 models and 76 full-color planes in all, a full-color poster of an airport, a pilot’s license and flight log, and a field guide to common aircraft.
But the impossible to resist attraction, as within the grown-up version, are the planes themselves: The Count, The Dragon, The Manta Ray, The Slice, The Aerobat, the Saturn Rocket. Plus the chance to be the next world record holder.
Selection of the Doubleday Kids’ Club. Suitable for ages 5 and up. 360,000 copies in print.
