5.0 out of 5 stars A great, spell-binding read, 28 Jul 2005
By A Customer
Mr Planemaker's Flying Machine by Shelagh Watkins

Anyone who has ever harboured a desire to become an astronaut ought to read this wonderful book and climb aboard the space mission.
Emmelisa and Dell are the first kids to venture into space.
After tinkering with an old computer and encountering some mysterious characters, they are catapulted into this intriguing adventure, in which they train to become astronauts. Then they embark on an exciting voyage to follow their father's trail of light.
The story is spell-binding, compelling and magical. The plot is unusual, clever and well thought out.
I was very impressed with the author's research and knowledge of her subject and her use of technical terms, which will educate her readers. She also has great emotional insight, as the children have to deal with great changes in their lives, but it leaves them stronger and the story ends on a note of hope.
This talented new author is a welcome find. She pays great attention to detail and her pages are alight with adventure.
I highly recommend this inspiring and most original novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Story of Space Travel and Discovery, 27 Jun 2005
Shelagh Watkins has created a tale of incredible breadth, beauty and detail. The knowledge and research that went into this fascinating tale leave one feeling quite humble. Here we have the story of Emmelisa and Dell the young heroes and their two main mentors, Mr. A Leon Spaceman and Cosmos the cat. This book is an absolute must as it quite uniquely manages to educate, entertain and instill strong moral values, all at the same time. The story moves at a tremendous pace and the only problem the reader will experience is knowing how and when to put the book down before the amazing conclusion. I look forward eagerly to more offerings from this remarkable author.
