A Newbery Honor-winning biography of the men whose experiments brought about the Age of Flight. This engaging narrative account of Orville and Wilbur Wright, two men with little formal schooling but a knack for solving problems, follows their interest from a young age in the developing field of aeronautics. Russell Freedman's writing brings the brothers' personalities to life, enhancing the record of events with excerpts from the brothers' writing and correspondence, and accounts of those who knew them. Chronicling their lives from their early mechanical work on toys and bicycles through the development of several flyers, The Wright Brothers follows the siblings through their achievements--not only the first powered, sustained, controlled airplane flight, but the numerous improvements and enhancements that followed, their revolutionary airplane business, and the long legacy of that first brief flight. Illustrated with numerous historical photographs--many taken by the Wright brothers themselves--this is a concise, extremely reader-friendly introduction to these important American inventors. Includes a note on the Wright brothers' photographs, as well as recommendation for further reading and learning.Binding Type: Paperback

Fun but not for rough play.
Color: Orange
The ball contented our “golden” Jaxson for about 15 minutes. He then thought it was a regular ball and it’s just a little delicate for a big dog. I just wrote it off as a loss. Great idea but should be more durable.

Long lasting charge!

My 50 pound goldendoodle absolutely loves this ball. It keeps a charge for a long time. It turns off

Great find!
I used this on a prom bouquet and it came out beautiful. Soft dainty sparkles for the perfect shimmer. A convenient small aerosol container that I gave to my son’s girlfriend in case she wanted to touch it up or use it herself. I love the fact that it’s still stuck on my crafting desk. Very affordable and it served its purpose plus some!

The ultimate festival glow in a bottle!
**5.0 out of 5 stars - The ultimate festival glow in a bottle!**
If you want to be seen from space (in the best way possible), this holographic silver spray is exactly what you need. I bought this for a rave, and it exceeded all my expectations. Unlike other glitters that just look like silver specks, this has a true holographic finish that catches the light and shifts colors beautifully every time you move.
The "quick-drying" claim is no joke. I was worried about it feeling sticky or transferring onto my clothes, but it set in about 60 seconds and stayed put. I sprayed it on my hair, my collarbones, and even over my makeup, and it lasted through hours of dancing without fading or raining down "glitter snow" all over the floor.
I also love how fine the mist is. It’s a very even, shimmering distribution rather than big, chunky blobs of glitter, which makes it look much more high-end. It washes out of hair and off the skin surprisingly easily with just standard soap and water, too. If you’re looking for that perfect, effortless sparkle for a concert or party, this is the one to get. Just a fair warning: once you start spraying, you'll probably want to cover everything in it!
