Matthew Olshan
Illustrated by Sophie Blackall 20016
Goodness the illustrations are wonderful! But of course I've come to expect nothing less from Sophie Blackall. The subject matter is fascinating- the first balloon flight across the English channel with a Frenchman and Englishman on board. Olshan takes some creative liberties (the French bulldog and English bulldog are a nice touch) but the story is a fun look at an often overlooked part of history.
