Book Reviews of Sadie the Airmail Pilot
Book Review: Exceptional
Summary: 5 Stars
My 3.5 year old daughter loves this book. The retro-style illustrations are a visual smorgasboard. The author clearly has a passion and understanding of late 1920's to early 1930's aviation: There are autogiros, bi-planes, 'Popular Mechanics' futuristic designs- all borne of the '30's. However, the story is also gripping and fun as well. It tells the tale of a female cat pilot (Sadie) who flies the mail run in a small mono-plane with pure grit and determination to a meteorological outpost high in the South American Andes mountians. And you guessed it: She gets into trouble...but there is a happy outcome! A treasure of a book for boys and girls aged between 3 years to 41 years plus (in my case). Here's hoping Kellie Strom produces more!
Summary of Sadie the Airmail Pilot
Once upon a time a few brave pilots in little planes flew the Air Mail. No wind, no rain, no cold or flu, can stop the Air Mail getting through! "Sadie the Air Mail Pilot" is the story of one brave and fearless pilot who overcomes all the elements, terrible conditions and even a plane crash to deliver the mail! Like all the dedicated Air Mail pilots, Sadie is kept busy by the arrival of never-ending sacks of mail and the Air Mail HQ chief who barks orders at his staff.Reference & Nonfiction Books
