This would be a great book for a guided reading lesson. It is a level R, so it is intended for older students, in 3rd grade, some into 4th grade. I like that the book not only discusses the semantics of the flight and preparing but also the emotions that Lindbergh was feeling during this time as well. ( )

Genre: Historical Fiction
Media: Acrylic Paint
Use: Students who are interested in famous pilots and having them read and report on Charles Lindbergh. Read aloud to students and get them excited about learning bits of history from the same time period as Charles.
Critique: Great book that is informational as well as historical fiction. They made the art of flying seem valiant and exciting. I could see this being a great book to get any student who doesn't particularly like reading but appreciates planes interested in completing a project or testing reading comprehension. ( )

There are few books that could parallel this for its portrayal of Lindbergh Transatlanic flight. This is the best work I've read by Burleigh with the exception maybe of Night Flight about Amelia Earhart's similar accomplishment. This truly is a wonderful book. ( )

Flight chronicles the historic nonstop flight that Charles Lindbergh took from New York to Paris. The author did a great job of helping the reader to relate to the difficulty Lindbergh had in crossing the Atlantic. It was vital that he stay awake. To sleep would mean possible death for him. How does he accomplish this? The author tell about little things that Lindbergh did to stay awake. I like the ending. Students could research what Lindbergh's life was like upon awaking. How had his life changed? Older students may want to explore his notoriety and how that may have impacted the kidnapping of his son. It could be included in a unit of firsts, or heroes. I loved the illustrations of this book. It is beautiful. The pictures are either oil paintings or acrylic. The brushstrokes are prominent in some pictures. I think that this book would appeal to fourth graders to sixth graders, or anyone interested in Lindbergh regardless of age. ( )

This is a captivating story because it tells the story of Lindbergh's flight from his own point of view. It details many of his innermost thoughts and feelings during the flight, such as how he fought against sleep and how he felt as he looked down upon icebergs and ocean. The story is also told in present tense. This gives the reader the impression that the story is happening right here and now and it makes the excitement very real. Another strength of this book is the bold illustrations. They appear to be sketching and acrylics and they capture perfectly the expressions of anxiety, hope, and relief on Charles Lindbergh's face as he executes and completes his famous flight. Throughout the book, it is emphasized that Charles Lindbergh never expected to be a hero. This proves that anyone who has a dream can make history.
