Categories: Children's Books
Freddie the Flyer (2023) by Danielle Metcalfe-Chenail and Fred Carmichael is a picture book about Carmichael's life as a pilot in the Arctic. When Freddie was young, he saw an airplane up close for the first time as it dropped off supplies at his family's remote bush camp, and he was hooked. Organized month by month across a year, the book follows moments from nearly seventy years of flying in the North, from supply runs to search and rescue.
