Hovering Helicopters

---

Whirlybirds are go! Join a trio of animal pilots as they take to the skies in a hovering helicopter. This engaging picture book uses rhythmic, rhyming text to explain how helicopters work—from the spinning rotors that lift them up to how they can hover in one place or land in tight spots. The story highlights the many important jobs helicopters do, such as mountain rescues and fire-fighting. With bright, cheerful illustrations and a helpful glossary of "machine parts" at the end, it is an ideal introduction to aviation for young fans of things that go.
