About this book

This biography introduces children ages 6 to 9 to the life of Amelia Earhart, the first woman pilot to fly alone across the Atlantic Ocean. The book traces her journey from a young, adventure-loving girl growing up in Kansas to an American aviation pioneer, covering her many flight records and her mysterious disappearance. Earhart pursued flying at a time when many people believed women should not be pilots. The narrative explores how she worked hard to achieve her goals and break barriers in aviation. Designed for independent reading, the book uses short chapters and simple language appropriate for the target age group. It includes critical thinking elements such as Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How questions about Earhart's life, vocabulary definitions, and discussion prompts. The book also examines Earhart's lasting legacy and impact on future generations of pilots. This title is part of the Story Of series, which covers other historical figures including Marie Curie, Selena Quintanilla, Frida Kahlo, Helen Keller, and Jane Goodall.
