My Brothers' Flying Machine: Wilbur, Orville, and Me

32 pp. | Little | April, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-316-97159-6 $$16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jim Burke. The story of Wilbur and Orville Wright's accomplishments is told in spirited free verse by younger sister Katharine. As she relates the efforts behind their achievements, it becomes clear that Katharine played an important role in their success, providing encouragement and minding their bike shop while her brothers tinkered. Handsome large-scale paintings capture period detail in both the portraits and the panoramas.
