Wind Flyers by Angela Johnson, illustrated by Loren Long


From chapters.ca:
Three- time Coretta Scott King Award-winning author Angela Johnson and New York Times bestselling illustrator Loren Long invite readers to ponder a band of undercelebrated World War II heroes - the Tuskegee Airmen. With fleeting prose and transcendent imagery, this book by the masterful author/artist duo reveals how a boy's love of flight takes him on a journey from the dusty dirt roads of Alabama to the war- torn skies of Europe and into the hearts of those who are only now beginning to understand the part these brave souls played in the history of America.
