In these wacky Victorian adventures, budding aviatrix Emmaline Cayley and her test pilot, Rubberbones, soar (and sometimes crash) into adventure after adventure. With the rest of their offbeat household in tow, they run, hide and fly around England, pursued by flying monsters and a very bad man with no face, while showing a general disregard for the laws of physics. Astounding inventions, precarious contraptions, eccentric characters and nasty sandwiches abound.
