- Gather your little ones for story time with the National Air and Space Museum. Museum educator Ann Caspari will read the original story "Barnstorming Pilots, Flying Circuses and Air Shows." This story is about the incredible flying circuses in the pioneering days of flight. We will learn about the amazing tricks, fantastic stunts, and incredible maneuvers of pilots way back when and today. We return to Ruth, Millie and Lou from "Three Friends" and introduce little brother Mo. After the story, made a shadowbox air show.
