Publisher Description:

"A great book for a toddler that is interested in planes or about to go on their first flight." - The Overly Attached Reader

The pilot flies the airplane, along with his co-pilot. He has to make sure the passengers arrive safely. That's why he has to keep an eye on things like the altitude and the plane's speed during the flight. The airport control towers that he passes over tell him how and where he has to take off, fly and land.

An instructive, engaging picture book for children about airline pilots. For children ages 4 and up.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
Liesbet Slegers's successful book series helps young children search for the answer to that important question. Do you like food and cooking? You might want to be a chef. If you are afraid of heights, becoming a pilot probably isn't the right career choice. Or maybe you like school so much that you decide to become a teacher? There are so many wonderful careers to choose from
With clear language and cheerful drawings, this series presents many of the most popular professions. Each book is packed with fun facts, new words, and interesting stories of real professionals.
Do you know why an astronaut wears such a funny suit? How about why it is so difficult to be a ballerina or a racecar driver? Or why it's important to visit the dentist twice a year? Read these books to learn the answers to these questions
So . . . what do you want to be when you grow up?
