Flight : riveting reads for curious kids / by Reg Grant ; consultant Michael Allaby.
"Jet into the world of flight and discover its history, from the first hot-air balloons and gliders to today's supersonic spy planes, helicopters, and space vehicles. Telling the stories of the pioneers of aviation, such as Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart, Flight is also packed with fun facts. For example, did you know that early airplanes landed on wheels that were borrowed from cars and motorcycles?"--Publisher's website.
