Synopsis

In "The Rover Boys in the Air; Or, From College Campus to the Clouds," Edward Stratemeyer crafts an engaging adventure that captures the spirit of youthful ambition and the thrill of exploration. Stemming from his successful Rover Boys series, this volume showcases a seamless blend of action, camaraderie, and the emerging world of aviation during the early 20th century. Stratemeyer'Äôs storytelling is characterized by its straightforward prose and moral undertones, reflecting the socio-cultural milieu of the era that celebrated innovation and adventure against the backdrop of collegiate life. Edward Stratemeyer, an influential figure in children'Äôs literature, is best known for creating iconic characters and stories that resonated with young readers. His experience as a writer and editor, along with his keen understanding of what captivates youthful imaginations, led him to explore themes of brotherhood and discovery in this installment. The backdrop of aeronautics in the narrative parallels Stratemeyer'Äôs forward-thinking approach to literature, anticipating the technological advancements that would shape the future of adventure stories. I highly recommend "The Rover Boys in the Air" to readers of all ages, especially those with a penchant for classic adventure tales. This book not only entertains but also encourages readers to dream big and embrace the spirit of discovery, making it a delightful addition to both personal and educational libraries.

    The storm had been brewing for weeks.
    When I look back and remember those days of dripping rain, the thick grey cloud blanketing the sky, the rolling thunder, I wonder how we didn't see it coming. We didn't realise it was building into something.
    Back then, we just thought it was stormy weather. We had no idea what lay ahead.
    We couldn't ever have imagined how it would engulf us.
    Mali, Jonesey, Fara and Petey are reluctantly gathered in the library. They're not friends and they each have reasons they don't want to be there. As the rain starts, they do not bond as a group. Mali does not engage, Jonesy takes offence, Petey ridicules the others, Fara is silent, and their teacher Ms Devine is distracted. Outside, the bad weather steadily worsens. Soon they are trapped in the school, and pulling together may be the only way out when the storm begins.

    The Jade Emperor asked the Buddha to help subdue the monkey after he created havoc in Heaven. The Buddha created the Mountain of Five Elements to imprison the monkey. Five centuries later, Xuanzang, an eminent Buddhist monk, was entrusted by Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to retrieve Buddhist sutras from the Western Continent. On his way west, Xuanzang rescued the monkey. Enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, the monkey converted to Buddhism and became Xuanzang's disciple to guard him all the way to the Western Continent. 
    To maintain control of the unruly monkey, Guanyin instructed Xuanzang to put a golden hoop on the monkey's head and recite the hoop-tightening spell to punish any disobedience. The spell caused the monkey to writhe in agony and promise to behave. Guanyin also subdued a white dragon and transformed him into a horse to carry Xuanzang on his journey.
