Put yourself in the front seat of a military jet with stunning hand drawn detail!
I bought this book for my fighter jet loving daughter! She is only 4 and is still too young to appreciate all of the advanced details about the jets and their missions, but it will be a staple in our book collection for years to come. As a military pilot myself, this book is true to form in the way that military pilots operate on a day-to-day basis in a format all can understand. It is a great read with astonishing hand drawn pictures putting you in the front seat of one of the greatest fighter jets ever flown! While geared towards children, this easy to read book is the best I have seen that allows anyone young or old to see just what it is like to fly in a fighter! The hardback book and dust jacket are high quality that are sure to stand the test of time as my 4 year old grows up reading this instant classic!

Perfect for Your Little Fighter Boy (or Girl)!
The classic style illustrations in this book are cute, and perfect for the little boy who wants to grow up to fly planes. A great gift for a military family or anyone whose child (like mine) points out every single airplane they see flying through the sky!
