Man From The Sky

Cover art from Avi's Man From The Sky

This story is based on something that really happened, the so-called. "D.B. Cooper case." The man stole some money, hijacked an airplane, then parachuted out of the plane with the money. My story is based on the notion that there was a boy on the ground who saw him jump from that plane. Exactly what the boy -- Jamie -- does makes for an exciting and unusual adventure. You see, there is a vital message to read and Jamie -- who has trouble reading -- has to work it out.
