High-flying Helicopters (Amazing Machines)

Good story for children! Cute & informative illustrations. My grandson loves helicopters & loves this book!

I never write reviews but this book is so cute and perfect for my 21 month old girl who is currently obsessed with helicopters. It’s very informative but also has rhyming throughout which keeps her engaged. Great pictures as well. Worth the purchase!

Our little guy is thoroughly obsessed with helicopters and this book was an instant hit with him. I love the educational elements of it - I never knew about cyclic or collective sticks before - and he adores noting which helicopters have landing skids or how many rotor blades are on each propeller. If your kiddo is into copters, this is your book.

What a cute book. Nicely written. Gives some basic information on a child’s level about how a helicopter works but doesn’t dwell on it. That is, the whole book doesn't talk about the workings of the helicopter. Very pleased with it.

Our 3 yr old granddaughter adores this book. It is her 3rd book in this series of Tony Mitton Amazing Machines books. She looks all the details and has plenty of questions. Her parents and her grandparents highly recommend this book for young children. The writing is easily understood by children and the colorful illustrations contribute to the child's understanding of what could be complicated operations.

This quickly became my grandson’s new favorite book. At 2 years old he had already memorized the words. The book was informative educational and we loved the way it sparked his imagination! Lovely book comes highly recommended from this Nana!

We have had a set of eight Tony Mitton books for years (submarines, planes, boats, diggers, & others). Although my kids are a bit old for them now, I couldn’t resist spending a few dollars on this helicopter one, mostly out of nostalgia, thinking of the many nights I read the others to my sons (who are now 10 & 12). These books are brilliant!... both the rhymes & the illustrations. I’d strongly recommend them for a one to six year old boy or girl. Hours of enjoyment.

I was very tickled with how great this book described a helicopter and many of the jobs it does, yet was still written on a kid level. Fun and informative.
