Review: Violet the Pilot in France
Overview
Violet the Pilot in France is the delightful second installment in Bettina Bathe's children's series. This adventure takes readers on a captivating hot air balloon journey over the picturesque landscapes of Provence, France. The author, a proud Canadian and commercial pilot, cleverly incorporates a Canadian flag patch on Violet’s shoulder, alongside the French flag, reflecting the character's connection to both countries.
Story Synopsis
In this vibrant tale, two young French passengers enlist Violet for a balloon ride to enhance their bike tour. However, their journey is soon challenged by unexpected weather. Thanks to Violet's expert piloting skills and quick thinking, the passengers are safely guided through the skies. Meanwhile, Violet's trusty animal and insect friends form the ground crew, embarking on their own mini-adventure to keep up.
The story culminates in a charming picnic feast, where Violet bids farewell to her passengers with a touching violin performance.

Barbara Fortin’s illustrations beautifully capture rural France, showcasing its unique architecture, agriculture, and fashion with bright and engaging details. A sprinkle of French vocabulary enriches the text, encouraging children to develop an interest in global cultures and navigation, aided by handy maps and illustrations.
Educational Value
Children will learn valuable lessons about hot air ballooning, from pre-flight preparations to landing techniques. Moreover, the book extends beyond entertainment and education, as a portion of its sales supports the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
