The book of Flying Machines is full of bright illustrations of airplanes, helicopters, jets and more. My son is a fan of all things that fly and without words he still enjoyed this one.

My little boys loved this book. They are obsessed with all forms of transportation so this was right up their alley. The ending did feel a bit abrupt. There are no page wrapping everything up and I think that would have helped the structure.

A very informative book for aircraft enthusiasts. Maybe too much info for preschoolers unless they have a long attention span but elementary-aged children would enjoy the colorful and detailed drawings and labels.

A perfectly decent primer for all things flying – it has a go at the physics of lift and thrust, and introduces us to jumbo jets, jetpacks, helicopters, drones and, er, Spitfires, just in case we might get an interest. I found the characters used to busy up the page slightly disposable, but that's not a problem when the target audience is considered. A strong four stars.
