A Voyage in the Clouds: The (Mostly) True Story of the First International Flight by Balloon in 1785 by Matthew Olshan

4.0

What a fun (and mostly true) book!  Olshan and Blackall's book discusses a rarely talked about but an important and fun event: the first international balloon ride!  With Olshan's intriguing and explanatory narrative as well as Blackall's highlighting illustrations, this book is fun for all to both read and learn something new.  There's a lot of attention to detail both obviously and subtly, making it great for readers in grades 2-4.
