Review # 1 was written on 2016-11-21 00:00:00 David Dozal This isn't a story with a plot. It introduces the idea that there are many kinds of planes and different planes are used for different reasons. (However, there aren't any military planes, which I can appreciate, but we live near an air force base and an army base, so we often see military planes, helicopters, jets ... and I would have liked to see one included in the book.) The art is perfect for helping kids learn from pictures as well as from text. My 3-year-old nephew loves to study each page. A pet peeve of mine: All too many people don't use art for a learning-aid. In a well-done science book, there are often illustrations which are meant to be studied. Ideally, they should enhance the text by helping the reader visualize particular concepts. Unfortunately, there are all too many low quality texts (particularly for grades K-12) that clutter pages for no purpose except to add color. This clutter actually interferes with learning.
