It's 1940,and the world is at war. Linus,a swift,has always dreamed of flying with the Royal Bird Force and making a name for himself as a squadron leader. So when he and his sister,Ava,have the opportunity to volunteer,he jumps at the chance.
But it's a dangerous journey,and Ava goes missing before they manage to reach the airfield for training. Now,Linus has two missions: help the war effort and find his sister.
Linus will face bomber planes,arrogant falcons,and a spy who's determined to take him down...
He is brave and fast and kind - but can Linus prove that helping win the war is more about the size of your heart than the size of your wings
Featuring courageous loop-the-loops,top secret plans and more than a smattering of bird poo,this wartime tail will make you laugh and cry - and maybe teach you a thing or two as well.
