review:
'Airship to the Arctic' by Jan Leyssens is a picture book for young readers about a famous explorer and is part of a series about scientific wonder.

This book tells two stories that end up intersecting. One is of the development of air travel by balloon. The other is of polar explorer Roald Amundsen who, after having difficulties with ships getting to the Arctic, is looking for a new method of exploration.

The story is engaging. The illustrations are really very good. The book should suit curious young readers who like true stories.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Clavis Publishing and NetGalley. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
