“Factually accurate, yes—but also a witty pictorial reincarnation of Bleriot’s first experience of an airship.”
Kirkus Reviews
“The story is as brief, graceful, and direct as the course of a paper airplane across a living room. This spaciously crafted book is very much in the spirit of its subject. Fact is turned into magic.”
New York Times
Alice Provensen (1918–2018) and her husband, Martin (1916–1987), wrote, edited, and illustrated numerous childrens’ books. They won the Caldecott Medal for The Glorious Flight.
