Published in the 1930's for children, Big Little books consisted of the left page being text and the right side a drawing of the action. Their size is also unique measuring 3 and a half by 4 and half inches by one and a half thick. This story is about an adventure of Tailspin Tommy and his attempt to fly a payroll to a mining concern in Mexico. Forced down by another plane armed with guns, Tommy is soon on the run on foot with the payroll aided by a woman who picks him up on the highway with her sports car. The fast moving story would appeal to young readers who enjoy an adventure story. May even seen quaint considering the planes and cars in the drawings are of 1930 vintage.
Other heroes who had books in this series included Dick Tracy, Mickey Mouse, Tarzan and Buck Rogers.
