Barrington Stoke Teen: Wings - Spitfire by Tom Palmer (author) and David Shephard (illustrator)

Greg’s fed up with playing in goal. He reckons things only happen to you there. The other players get to make them happen. The summer school isn’t turning out how he’d hoped at all.

The old airfield next to the school freaks Greg out … but when he starts on a model of an old Spitfire, he’s propelled into an adventure that will really show him what it means to take control …

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.
