Set imaginations soaring with the only book for young readers that explores the history--and potential future--of cars that can fly!

As soon as there were planes and automobiles, visionary engineers and inventors did their best to combine the two to create flying cars. This engaging account of attempts to build hybrid vehicles includes insight into their creators and the intense drive--and dreams of flight--that kept bringing inventors back to the drawing board. Generously illustrated with fascinating period photographs, the book combines history, biography, technology, and humor, and it includes an author's note, source notes, bibliography, and index.

A must-have for fans of cars and planes and for spurring the creativity of young inventors inspired by the combination of cutting-edge technology and human ingenuity.
