Aircraft explanation]
The Henschel Hs 129 was a twin-engine ground attack aircraft used by the German Luftwaffe during World War II.
Around 1937, the German Aviation Ministry presented a prototype competition to aircraft manufacturers for a "small twin-engine attack aircraft equipped with a 20 mm cannon and with heavy armor protection," and prototypes were produced based on designs by Focke-Wulf and Henschel.
Around 1939, when the prototypes of both companies were completed and comparative evaluation was conducted, the Hs129 was selected and 12 aircraft were ordered as the Hs129A-0.
However, the 465 horsepower of the Argus As410A-1 installed on the Hs129A-0 was not enough to give the five-ton aircraft the maneuverability it needed, and the aircraft had poor maneuverability and handling, making it difficult even for experienced pilots to control.
However, after the occupation of France, it became clear that the 700 horsepower Gnome-et-Rhone 14M air-cooled, double-radial, 14-cylinder engine could be used again, and the aircraft was redesigned as the Hs129B.
With these modifications, it was able to be used as a dedicated armored vehicle attack aircraft, attacking enemy armored vehicles from the air and destroying the upper parts of the vehicles, and proved effective in actual combat, earning it the nickname "Flying Can Opener."
The Hs129B-2 had modifications made to the engine carburetor area and the antenna mast was eliminated, and in terms of armament it was possible to equip the MK101, MK103, and BK3.7 37mm cannon packs.
The Hs 129B-3 was equipped with a BK7.5 75 mm anti-tank gun in its pack armament. It was initially tested under the designation Hs129B-2/R4, but was later adopted as the Hs129B-3. It is said that around 25 of these were deployed in combat.
-Clear parts for the upper part of the main wing and the left rear part of the fuselage are included
- Decals included (4 types of marking options for both)
*No figures are included with either kit.

Humorous intro-level book to AI
Format: Hardcover
If you are new to the field of AI, this is a fun read. The author does a fine job breaking down complex topics into bite-size, entertaining sections. However, if you are not new to the field of AI, you'll probably find this book boring and will find more joy in visiting the author's popular website. Personally, I find this book forgettable and not living up to the hype.

Captivating storytelling and educational material
Format: Paperback
My ten years old boy loved WW2 in Europe: Great Battles for Boys. He likes to read about war and it his third book from Joe Giorello. It is an engaging and easy-to-understand account of significant World War II moments designed for young boys. It has pictures and maps so they can have a better understanding about the War and through captivating storytelling and educational material, it provides a valuable introduction to this crucial era, promoting a greater comprehension and respect for the experiences and achievements of individuals during that time.

Why are these books so hard to find in libraries and bookstores??!
Format: Paperback
Bought nearly the whole book series after reading the reviews. My 8 and 10 year old boys love these books. My 10 year old read the first book on his way to and from soccer practice. He couldn't put it down and kept telling me what he read. My boys have read all the "Magic Treehouse", "I Survived" and some "I Escaped" books, as well as "Big Nate", "Diary of a Wimpy Kid", etc. BUT these battle books are the best. They really teach about the history of the wars which have shaped our modern times. WHY are these books so hard to find in libraries and bookstores... at least in Maryland? Maybe because "Great Battles for Boys" reeks of toxic masculinity? I really wonder. In any case, great books especially if you want your boys to read serious, informative books that are interesting and entertaining.

Great for boys AND MOMS
Format: Paperback
Saw an ad for the series online and wanted to buy just one book to try. Received with 2 day Prime. Book was new. So, not only does this book have an incredible, intriguing story that sucked in my 10 year old who hates reading and struggles to read, it had me at Hello. The beginning of the book is filled with recipes! Was totally not expecting that! So for this Momma, under promise-over deliver was the theme here. Purchasing the rest of the books! Also look online for worksheets that parents have put together to go along with these books. Totally worth it. Happy Reading! AND Cooking!

Great reads for all levels
Format: Paperback
I bought 2 for a 6th grade boy I tutor. He has a beginning interest in history. He's been 'eating' these books up! These are well written, but not complex to turn a young reader off. There are many alternative resources to listed to dive into if a particular person or event sparks interest with the reader. There is appropriate vocabulary with explanations on some- others open a chance for my student & I to have a deeper discussion to clarify meaning & connect information.
