I liked it. It was really awesome but it was more of a history book. But it gave me some ideas for building planes with LEGOs and it was really fun! This book includes: history of planes, the Concord, helicopters, Zepplins, small planes, big planes and more!
I bought this book for my grandkids. Their dad works in the aerospace field and this is a good introduction for them to understand the history and principles of flight.
I bought this book as a present for a young boy whose father is a professor of aeronautical engineering. The material is presented very well and covers all but the most recent commercial and military aircraft without a lot of boring detail. It not only describes the aircraft but covers interesting detail such as instrument panels, controls and flight gear.The book was everything I wanted - to expose this young man to the history of aviation.
Kids at my son's school love it. I donated it to the school library. I love buying books for my kids as well as our local schools.
Bought this book for reading time with GranPap and Grandson, they have enjoyed this book very much.T
Very good book. 7 yr old Grandson couldn't put it down.
grandson loves it
Excellent!
