Flying Lessons
by Janann Krauel
Welcome to the official site for Flying Lessons
Flying Lessons is a book written for children grades 3 - 5, ages 9 - 12. Younger children love to have Robbie's story read to them. Adults find the story entertaining, enlightening and fun.
The idea for the book came while I was sitting at a mall eating lunch. I noticed a bird had somehow gotten inside and was flying around the ceiling high over the heads of shoppers. Being afraid of heights myself, I realized I'd be very nervous if I were up that high, and silently wondered if there had ever been a bird that was afraid of heights.
The story became not only a tale about a young bird who was afraid to fly. It also shows that it is only through facing and conquering what we fear most that we can have the life we're meant to live. The book highlights some of life's most important lessons.
My stories are perfect for children's birthday and Christmas gifts.
I hope you enjoy meeting Hoover, Robbie, Sarah and the Flying Lessons gang.
