Yet one idea won’t leave his mind: could a person truly fly like a bird?As Flora flutters overhead, Leonardo studies her every move and sets out to build a flying machine. There are crashes, mishaps and laughter along the way, but with a little inspiration from his feathered friend, Leonardo finally discovers what it means to turn dreams into invention.This uplifting tale of creativity, friendship and perseverance celebrates the power of curiosity, and shows that even the biggest ideas can take wing with a little imagination.Also available in the series:9781912785162 Monet's Cat9781915751256 Van Gogh’s Dog9781915751546 Matisse and the Runaway Rabbit
