Book Review: Lars the Monkey Flies a WACO Airplane



Book Review: Lars the Monkey Flies a WACO Airplane



Lars the Monkey Flies a WACO Airplane by Meaghan Fisher, Illustrated by Marla Fair

Published by Gypsy Publications (2010)

ISBN: 978-0984237517

Summary:  Lars wants to learn to fly a WACO airplane himself so he can share his love for flying with little passengers of his own. As Saturday approaches, the day that WACO pilots give rides, the pilot is missing. Can Lars fly the plane and save the day?

Author Bio: Meaghan Fisher is a substitute teacher and a former nanny. She has over ten years experience working with children. Meaghan has a BS in Psychology and a Minor in Women’s Studies.  She is a published poet and is currently working on her first novel. Meaghan lives in Troy, Ohio, with her husband, daughter, and their two dogs, Sadie and Lexi.

Review:  As a child Lars loved airplane rides, and as an adult he is determined to share his passion for flying with so that other children can also experience these rides.  When the instructor injures himself and can’t take people on airplane rides, Lars has two choices: sit back or make a difference.  The message of this book is refreshing and I love Lars’ passion for helping others.  This book is sure to teach your young child an important message on doing the right thing and making a difference!
