"In an era of dirigibles and hot air balloons, the Wright brothers were among the first innovators of heavier-than-air flight. But in the hotly competitive international race toward flight, Orville and Wilbur were up against a lot more than bad weather. Mechanical failures, lack of information, and even other aviators complicated the Wright brothers' journey. But thanks to their carefully recorded experiments and a healthy dash of bravery, the Wright brothers' flying machines took off" -- Page [4] of cover.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Great narrative nonfiction submitted by Sara W on August 4, 2019, 3:32pm It’s TOUGH to simplify the story of flight and this book does an admirable job making it interesting and digestible to a young audience. It’s informative and interesting, which is a hard balance to strike.
