Summary: Great for introducing a slightly longer story
Comment: I wasn't sure this was a great purchase for my two-year-old at first: there are a lot more words per picture than in his other books. But he surprised me by loving it!
In contrast to Byron Barton's books, which are very realistic accounts of airplanes and airports, Harman and Payne create an imaginative world that assumes that different airplanes have personalities. In this book, Artie is introduced as a little plane who loses his job when a road is built to the small town he serves. The other planes turn up their noses at him until he becomes the only one who is able to be a rescue plane and save his small town in a snowstorm. It is an engaging story with a gentle moral. Very agreeable.
It took us several tries to make it all the way through with my two-year-old, but now he loves it and is becoming interested in books with more and more words per picture. I think an older child would enjoy it right off the bat, and I think the way the print is laid out would make it easy for a beginning reader to navigate.

Summary: Awsome Artie
Comment: Just Great! The age catagory is 3-11. It was just a little long for a 3 year old. But we loved it just the same.
Cute illustrations. And we like the charaters in the book Jack the Jumbo jet and Frankie the Fighter jet.
At first they have trouble competing for attention at the airport. But of course they all work it out.
We plan to buy more books in this series and we just purchased the videos. Can't wiat to see them!
