Flight

I love good picture books. Books, where the text and the illustrations go hand in hand, to tell a great story.. Flight, by Robert Burleigh and illustrated by Mike Wimmer, is one of those stories.

Flight is the story of twenty five year old, Charles Lindbergh's trans-Atlantic flight from New York to Paris, France. Young and foolish, many thought; especially when he left without a radio and a parachute. "Oh that crazy kid!" But he had a dream and he had to try. The rest is history.

This book wouldn't be complete without the pictures of Mike Wimmer. The illustrations are bold, vivid, and dramatic...

This is a great story for those who have a dream and won't let it go, until they follow their dream.
