Follow your dreams
A shy boy from Brazil, Alberto dreamed about flying when people couldn’t fly. His story delights us with beautiful descriptions of the sky and flying as he struggles to overcome people’s fears and his own failures. Because of his many inventions for flight - for the balloon, airship, and airplane - he is called ”The Father of Aviation.” He inspires us with his dedication, humility, and generosity; and he shows us that if we just follow our dreams, wonderful things can happen.
Um tímido menino brasileiro, Alberto Santos Dumont voou quando isso era apenas um sonho para as pessoas. A história de sua vida nos encanta com belas descrições do céu e de seus vôos, enquanto ele luta para vencer o medo das pessoas e suas próprias falhas. Devido as suas muitas invenções para o vôo em balões, aeronaves e aviões, ele é chamado “O Pai da Aviação”. Alberto nos inspira com sua dedicação, humildade e generosidade e também nos mostra que, se corrermos atrás dos nossos sonhos, coisas maravilhosas podem acontecer.
