Eli the mouse is a dreamer, and most of the time his dreams are too big to actually accomplish--but when he gets it in his head to build a car from scratch, his friends Phoebe the bird and Hank the toad actually agree to help. As the three animal friends learn how to create a car, readers can learn along with them with diagrams of each part and process.

Eli and his friends decide to build a small plane together. The story follows the friendly trio as they learn all about how a plane flies and how it is constructed. Detailed illustrations show the inner workings of a plane, teaching children the basics of how each part works together to get the plane flying.
