Maisy Goes on a Plane

September 1, 2015

PreS-The latest Maisy book describes the beloved mouse's first plane trip. Through simply stated text with a friendly tone, readers' journey along with Maisy from check-in, boarding, and finding a seat to buckling seat belts, holding the hand of a nervous friend, and taking off. Finally, after they soar through the night, it's time for "Touchdown! The plane gives a little bump and a jump as it lands." With its trademark bright, saturated colors, black outlines, and flat illustration style, this title is ready-made for the preschool set and will help prepare for a first plane trip, or serve as another reliable transportation title. VERDICT A solid addition to the series.-Ramarie Beaver, Plano Public Library System, TX
