The Man Who Walked Between the Towers: (Caldecott Medal Winner)

Our grandchildren fell in love with this book. We had it from the library and then purchased a used copy. As they opened the package and could see only about 3" of the spine, they yelled, "Phillipe Petit, Phillipe Petit!" They were fascinated with the true story of walking between towers, especially when Phillipe laid down on his wire and "danced" on his back with his balancing bar across his chest. A perfect book to capture reality with a happy ending (until the twin towers went down.) We are fortunate to have found this!

An exciting book with great pictures that arrived promptly and well packaged

I guess this is the first time I am writing review for a kids book. Mostly I buy books for my son (now 4) from Amazon based on other users reviews and I saw this one doesn't have that many reviews so I share my experience:This is one of the most awe-inspiring book because it is not mythical, science fiction or folk-lore, it is real and written very well. I think my son can't understand the difference between this one an other stories, for him this is as real as others, but for me it was like a fresh breeze. Also, this is a story not everybody knows and the end of the book is a story for another time.I will say its brilliant for every age. I hope we get more books like these (real life untold stories)
