The Man Who Owned a Plane

The Man Who Owned a Plane is a poignant philosophical allegory that explores what we truly inherit from those who came before us. The inspiration for this story came from Theodore reflecting on how we often focus on material inheritance rather than the wisdom, values, and perspectives that are passed down. As a pilot himself, the plane became a natural metaphor for exploring these profound ideas.

 

The book has been compared to beloved works like The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho and Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach. Like these timeless stories, Theodore wanted to create something that uses simple narrative to explore complex human experiences—a story with universal appeal that allows readers to discover personal meaning regardless of their background or life circumstances.

Gorgeous story. I’m getting Mitch Albom, Paulo Coelho, and William P. Young (The Shack) vibes. I found elegance in its simplicity.

Inspiring and thought-provoking! An innovative and creative way to express the gifts our parents give and instill in us. The illustrations are incredible.
