Flight # 116 is down!
by Caroline B. Cooney
This books is about the rescue operations of Flight # 116 crashed at isolated place near New York City.
The main aim of the book, as what I understood, is to learn to respect the volunteer working as rescue workers. In such emergencies with limited capacity, keeping asides their own emotions they do their duties.
The story starts at Saturday 5.05 P.M. and ends at Sunday, 12:48 A.M.. Although there is lot of scope for describing gloomy & dark side of crash scenes, the author remain human enough to keep such details to essentials & minimum.
The main character of the story goes through roller coaster of emotions & tries to understand life, death, emergency & helping.
Good book to read for young ones,
