FlumeAward – Airman Discussion page for Airman
This may end up on the Isinglass List (so far we all see it ending up on our final list)….it is a wonderful adventure story but I think it may meet the reading needs of middle school kids better than high school age kids. Lots of adventure, a little romance, and some high flying inventions.
I enjoyed listening to this fun story on audio, but I agree with the above comment that it’s geared more toward 7th and 8th grade. There were a few rather slow parts – when our hero is stuck in prison – which seemed to drag on, but again, I liked it very much. Probably not Flume material, as I mentioned.
