Amelia Earhart

The biography follows Amelia Earhart, the pioneering aviator who shattered records and broke gender barriers in the early 20th century. It details her historic 1932 solo transatlantic flight, when she became the first woman to cross the Atlantic in less than fifteen hours, and later chronicles her ambitious attempt to circumnavigate the globe that ended mysteriously. Sidebars, timelines, and a glossary provide context for the era's aviation milestones and the terminology of flight. Young readers will gain insight into both her trailblazing achievements and the enduring questions surrounding her disappearance.
