Air raid! The world’s great powers are at war again. This is the Second World War, but it is history’s first war in which airplanes play a major role. You want to fly and you want to fight. Will you: Fly with the Royal Air Force as a British pilot and fight in the Battle of Britain? Dogfight as an American fighter pilot over the Pacific Ocean? Join the Tuskegee Airmen and be one of the first African-American aviators in the U.S. military?
"There are always boys who, even at an early age, have an insatiable appetite for war books and there are very few good books written at an elementary level that give the detail, explanation and experience that this one does. . . .No doubt this would be a wonderful addition to any school or personal library for the young World War II reader." - Novel Nutritious blog

"Having three initial choices is great because there are so many adventures you can try and you can read this book over and over again. Plus, aside from the history lessons at the start and at the end of the book, you learn a lot of stuff, particularly about the different types of planes. . . .READ IT IF: Your child wants to become a pilot. You want to teach your child about World War 2. Your child likes choose-your-own-adventure books." - Second Bookshelf on the Right blog

"I actually enjoyed going back and forth and making choices to see where each path led. I also liked the photographs that are included and relevant to the path I was following. . . .World War II Pilots is an excellent book for leisure reading as well as home schooling and classroom use." - The Children's War blog

"The twenty different endings make sure this is a book many will be read again and again. The page design and photographs and maps chosen add to the feel of being there. The very extensive tools make further learning easy and inviting." - Childish Nonsense blog
