My son's favorite!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book is fantastic. It's been read and re-read so many times that my son could tell you any of the jets by his second birthday. Each letter of the alphabet has a corresponding jet and short vignette about the jet or jet history (eg. Chuck Yeager breaking mach 1). It is a large paperback book, which does make it vulnerable to rips, but also makes it pleasing to kids due to the large pictures. A winner!
For the airplane lover in your house

Our three year old carries this book everywhere. He is constantly flipping through the pages and looking at the jets. He can name all of the jets in the book. The book contains great photographs, and facts about each jet. I also recommend the Airplane Alphabet book. Buy them and add them to your child's collection. You won't be sorry.
suitable for a wide range of ages

I bought this book for my airplane-aficionado son when he was far too young to appreciate all of the advanced details about the jets. No problem - it's a great book to go through, looking at the pictures, and reading just what each letter stands for, starting with "A is for Aerocomet". It was the best airplane book we've found for little kids. Now that he's five, I'm reading the whole thing, every word. It stands up better than most to repeated rereadings.
The Jet Alphabet Book

The Jet Alphabet Book is really good because it has my favorite jet is in it; the SR-71 Blackbird. I really like that kind of jet because it can go 3 times the speed of sound and flies so high and so fast the pilot needs to wear a spacesuit and I recomend this book to children ages 4+.
Jet Alphabet Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
My 2 year old son loves this book. He requests it and has "read" it over and over. He can pick out and name specific jets by their shape and color. Illustrations are realistic. Not only does this book show both capital and lower case letters, it also shows an example of jets that begin with each letter. Information about current and past jets, some history, and a little about how they work.
