Bartholomew Biddle and the Very Big Wind

Производитель: "Неизвестный"

It was a cold bitter wind, and it blew ... and it blew... It blew through the trees and the little town, too. Bartholomew Biddle`s life has always been pretty ordinary, but when a huge wind blows past his window one night, he feels the call of adventure and he can`t resist the urge to grab his bed sheet and catch a ride. Soon he`s soaring far above his little town, heading wherever the wind takes him! After spending time on an island full of pleasure-seeking pirates and at a prep school that boasts a hundred shades of grey, Bart finds himself in a mysterious cove where the wind doesn`t blow. Stuck, Bart is forced to face the fact that his flying days might be over. Will he ever get home again? ISBN:9780763649203
