Summary: Loved it!
Comment: This is a wonderful book! The perspective of this story
from Orville & Wilbur's little sister, Katherine, is
unique and charming. The book reads really well out
loud for all ages, and should be a perfect read-by-myself
book for a 3rd,4th or 5th grade reader. And the
beautiful illustrations, by Jim Burke, set a perfect tone and feel throughout the book. I highly recommend this one!

Summary: My Brothers' Flying Machine
Comment: Jane Yolen is again at her best. She has a delightful way of portraying the Wright Brothers' sibling, Katharine as a strong female character in a usually male-dominated milieu. The reader immediately connects with this protagonist and feels pride in the role Katharine plays in her brothers' history-making event.
After seeing illustrator Jim Burke's breathtaking illustrations in his first book for young people: POETRY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE - WALT WHITMAN, I was delighted to see his work appear side by side with the great Jane Yolen. Burke has captured emotions brilliantly. His attention to detail serves to transport the reader vicariously to Katharine's neighborhood of 100 years ago. A truly budding genius.
