Illustrated by
Nancy Speir.
"Grandma says, 'Come visit me!' / Time to go! Lots to see!" A boy narrates his first airplane trip with his parents: waiting at the gate, boarding the plane, looking out the window, etc. Reassuring text provides an account of what young travelers can expect. Cleanly composed acrylic illustrations include kid-pleasing details (e.g., the boy's unmatched socks revealed at security).
