5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent historical fiction for third or fourth graders.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Spy in the Sky (Hyperion Chapters) (Paperback)
Kathleen Karr's Spy in the Sky is not just another Civil War book. In fifty-five pages the reader not only learns to care about the characters but also learns of this unique use of gas balloons in war. Teachers will find this useful in the Social Studies units. Third and fourth graders will be able to read it independently. Karr ends with a two page biography of Thaddeus Lowe. It is quite a story packed into 55 pages.

More than just a children's book...,

This review is from: Spy in the Sky (Hyperion Chapters) (Paperback)
Thaddeus Lowe is the undisputed father of our U.S. Airforce, and grandfather to famed aviatrix Florence Lowe, aka Pancho Barnes. This children's book tell's Thadddeus's Civil War story as never told before. A great way to share aviation history with your children, and learn a little something for yourself too. - Stan McClain
