Synopsis

Prepare for takeoff! Jerry Pallotta brings us another high-flying alphabet book with a lot of velocity. THE JET ALPHABET BOOK propels young minds into the wild blue yonder to fly with Goblins and Nighthawks while they lock in solid reading skills. Learn that the Flying Falcon, while able to carry 3000 pounds of fuel, can only fly for an hour and a half. The Dream, a Russian jet, is large enough to carry ten school buses! Zillions of other exciting facts about the jet age zoom across the pages of this book.

The jet age began in 1939 when the people of Germany built the first operational jet. 
A is for Airacomet. This was the first American jet. When it flew in 1942, the Airacomet did not fly as fast as some propeller-driven airplanes. It was a dud, but no one was discouraged. Everyone knew that jets were the future.
