Beskrivelse
Leaving his parents and his country at the age of only 11, Feng Ru began a whole new life in America. For most children, being in a foreign land without family and friends would be a frightening experience. But little Feng Ru was a boy of exceptional courage and intelligence, and no challenge seemed insurmountable to him. He quickly learned the essential knowledge in mechanics and grew into a brilliant engineer. When the Wright Brothers invented the world's first airplane in 1903, Feng Ru soon realized how important this flying machine could be for protecting a country, like his own, from wars. Six years later, the first plane made by the "Wright of the East" Feng Ru was born! This book tells the fascinating story of Feng Ru, the first Chinese man to build airplanes, who never lost sight of his dream: to fly, and to make his country fly!
