Wings of Glory by Dermot O'Leary

Linus is a little swift who dreams of flying with Royal Bird Force in World War II.  He loses his sister when flying from Africa to England. He hoped to get in to A squadron with the fast peregrine falcons but he is sent to B squadron with a mixture of owls, hawks and magpies.

The plot follows Linus and the Royal Bird Force on a heroic journey. They have lots of adventures including secret missions, catching spies and helping the RAF in the biggest air battle of the war.

I like this story because it is a funny action-packed tale with great illustrations.  It teaches you that even if you are small you can achieve great things.
