The World of Flight

Graham, Ian. The World of Flight. Kingfisher: 2006. ISBN:0-7534-6008-4. Ages 9-12.

The world of flight is a nonfiction book about how planes and helicopters changed through many stages. This book could probably be used to teach people about flight. Illustrations easily grab attention with explanations. There are good descriptions of the planes and detail on how everything is made. The pictures easily grab the reader's attention. The historical photos really allow the reader to see what it was like. The drawings made for the book also helped. The diagrams on pages 54 and 55 are confusing. I recommend this book for ages 9-12.
