Just Plane Crazy: A Guide True Story Book

by Melanie Scherencel Bockmann

Not since the Wright brothers has there been such an adventure in the quest to fly! The boys' dream of becoming mission pilots is hampered only by the fact that "with all our future allowances combined, it will take us 63.9 years to raise enough cash to buy the plane." And so it begins. Rick, his little brother Tim, and their friend Marcus take on the challenge of raising enough money to buy the ultimate mission plane - a yellow Super Cub. This true story follows the boys through one "well-thought-out" mishap after another. Whether they're trapping skunks with veggie dogs or using the lightest member of the team for the first flight of the homemade hang glider (it's a good thing that the boys' mothers find out after the fact), this story will keep you hooked page after page. But there's another story in these pages - a story of kindness, honesty, and brotherly love. A story that will warm your spirit and challenge you never to give up your dreams. Mela
