Charlie and the Great Move

Angela Iremonger

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 oct 2022

Living in a damp, mouldy old hangar, Charlie Piper and his friends are happy in their home at the back of the airport. They don't mind the smell, the drips or the lumpy-bumpy floor. However, after complaints from the pilots and a visit from the airport manager, a decision is made - the planes have to move out. The day of the Great Move arrives and Charlie is towed to his new home...but what has he seen lurking in the hangar's shadowy depths? Can Mr Little - Charlie's owner - and Jess the Mechanic get him through the doors and into his spot? Welcome to Glossingham Airport and the world of Charlie Piper.

Notă biografică

Angela Iremonger grew up in Frimley, a small village in the UK. Every two years she'd watch the breathtaking air displays swoop past the garden from the nearby Farnborough Air Show, so close that she could almost see the faces of the pilots who flew past. Concorde passing gracefully overhead was a frequent sight which she never grew tired of. A trip to Heathrow's observation deck was an occasional treat. Although aeroplanes featured in her life, she never actually set foot in one until she went on a school trip to France at the age of 10.Now settled in North Somerset, Angela regularly flies with her husband - an ex-commercial pilot - in a Piper Cherokee PA-28, a single-engine plane which really does seem to have a personality of its own. This little plane is the inspiration behind 'The World of Charlie Piper'.For more information about Charlie and his friends, and to find out what happened one night in the old hangar, visit theworldofcharliepiper.co.ukAngela also writes a blog about her travels with Charlie and other plane-related musings at apilotscompanion.blog
