New Book by Award-Winning Author Tom Durwood Launches Just in Time for National Aviation History Month.
In celebration of National Aviation History Month, acclaimed author Tom Durwood releases his newest addition to the Ruby Pi adventure series, The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Aviation Girls. Following in the footsteps of his previous works, The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Math Girls and The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Geometry Girls, Durwood's latest book brings readers on a journey through aviation history, blending action, historical insights, and the spirit of young adventurers.

In The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Aviation Girls, Durwood portrays characters exploring flight in its many forms: birds, kites, balloons, airplanes, rocket jets, and spaceships. The collection of nine stories features daring heroines who take to the skies in a variety of time periods, from piloting helium balloons in the age of the Roman Empire to racing across Europe in early zeppelins and confronting the limits of flight in futuristic rockets. Readers will also encounter iconic aircraft, including the Bell X-1 and the legendary Mitsubishi A6M Zero, which played a crucial role in World War II.

As Anne Millbrooke, author of the award-winning Aviation History , notes: "Tom's delightful stories in The Aviation Girls span ancient ideas about flight through the Golden Age of aviation to the age of Rocketry." The stories offer a compelling blend of aviation history and personal adventure, making them both educational and engaging for young readers.

In addition to being a captivating history of flight, the book shines a light on young girls navigating their personal journeys through adversity. Each protagonist's adventure in the skies parallels her internal conflict, finding blue sky in the face of dark storm clouds. As Goodreads reviewer Saby Samar describes it: "Readers will meet some daring and adventurous girls who confront their personal struggles with loss, grief, and adversity with hope and resilience and depth of character."

Early reviews for The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Aviation Girls have been equally enthusiastic. Praised for its depth and originality, the book continues Durwood's tradition of using fiction to illuminate historical narratives, this time through the inspiring lens of aviation.

Available on Amazon [https://amzn.to/4f7pmpL] and Barnes & Noble [https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-adventures-of-rubi-pi-and-the-aviation-girls-tom-durwood/1146279759?ean=9781952520419] November 5th 2024.

Celebrate National Aviation History Month

As schools, libraries, and museums across the country celebrate National Aviation History Month, The Adventures of Ruby Pi and the Aviation Girls provides the perfect companion for young readers to explore the fascinating history of flight. Filled with adventurous girls who take to the skies, Durwood's latest work encourages readers to discover the world of aviation while learning important life lessons along the way.
