First in Flight: How a Photograph Captured the Takeoff of the Wright Brothers' Flyer

Paperback (Compass Point Books Aug. 1, 2020)
On-point historical photographs combined with strong narration bring the story of the historic first flight ever to life. Kids will feel as though they are at Kitty Hawk with Wilbur and Orville Wright as the brothers prepare to test their aircraft. They'll also learn about the history of flight and the skepticism that greeted the Wrights when they, at first, refused to release the photograph of their successful flight.
