A SECOND CHANCE
Guardian is a WWII plane who is relating her story in first person. She goes back in time to tell how she met her pilot and together they valiantly fought. One day her fuel tank leaks; Guardian succeeds in getting her pilot down alive. Now that the war is over, she finds herself in a scrap metal junkyard and wonders what became of her pilot. While the rest of the planes are resigned to their fate, Guardian hopes that she will one day fly again, but day after day planes disappear from the yard to be sold for scrap metal.
One day the gate opens to a new owner. The planes will be repaired and sent to various museums. Guardian rejoices that her optimism has proven true, but what has happened to that soldier who once flew and loved her?
Targeted for audiences five and older, this approximately twenty-five page book is really a beginning reader chapter book. There are a few simple, but attractive, illustrations. This book is a well-written sweet story embedding elements of history. While I enjoyed the plot, I noted typos and editing errors on the cover and inside the kindle text edition. If not for these, I would have given the book five stars. I would still recommend it, especially for children who are early readers interested in planes or history.
What a cool story about Guardian who in time becomes Guardian Forever !
I surely enjoyed this story told from Guardian herself about not giving up! This can have a very powerful moral lesson for us all.
Therefore, because of the great way this was shared - story and photos or illustration I wish to rate this for five stars and recommend it for young and us older ones with a young heart or who needs this encouragement, too!
I received this for free and in return, here is my honest review.
Super work Greer! By Angela
Never Waver In What You Believe In
A great story that honors the military men who fly for the safety of our country through the eyes of a planed dubbed "Guardian". A lesson on second changes and standing for what you believe in even when those around you don't believe. A story that is an encouragement to young and old, alike!
Guardian to the skies, once again, let her rise
I picked this book up for several reasons, the incredible cover is among them.
After reading it myself, I sat down and my lil girl read it to me. She loves it. I was asked if this is part of a series of airplane stories. It's sweet, fun, and a dreamer's perfect tale of never give up. This is now a family favorite! I hope we'll be able to put it on our physical shelves on day soon too!
Totally love it!
Totally love it! I am a huge fan of children's book and a dreamer. This book totally builds up hope and teaches you not to give up on your dreams. Another short yet worth reading book, can't put it down! A must read for children and to all young at hearts!
