LINDBERGH. THE STORY OF A FLYING MOUSE - CORINTH (JUN1061)
The Illustrated Stories collection from Corint Junior brings a sensitive title, but also the true page of world aviation Lindbergh - The Story of the Flying Mouse.
Torben Kuhlmann's ingenious story and wonderful illustrations will capture the imagination of readers - younger or older - with the stories of this fearless mouse.
These are tough times... for a mouse. A new invention - the mechanical trap for mice - made all his fellows flee to America, the land of the free.
But as steamships are guarded by cats, the Atlantic can no longer be crossed safely.
In the darkest hiding place... the only mouse left has a sensational idea.
You have to learn to fly!
"As the caretaker of Charles Lindbergh's plane, the Spirit of St. Louis, at the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum, I thought that Lindbergh got the idea to fly across the Atlantic, non-stop, by himself, after reading a news story in the press about the failed attempt by the famous French pilot René Fonck, from September 1926. [...]
But now I know the true source of Lindbergh's inspiration..." F. Robert van der Linden, National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution
