Groundbreaking American pilot Amelia Earhart is the 2nd hero in the New York Times bestselling picture book biography series for ages 5 to 8.
Amelia Earhart refused to accept no for an answer; she dared to do what no one had ever done before, and became the first woman to fly a plane all the way across the Atlantic Ocean. This biography follows her from childhood to her first flying lessons and onward to her multi-record-breaking career as a pilot.
This friendly, fun biography series inspired the PBS Kids TV show Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum. One great role model at a time, these books encourage kids to dream big. Included in each book are:
A timeline of key events in the hero's history
Photos that bring the story more fully to life
Comic-book-style illustrations that are irresistibly adorable
Childhood moments that influenced the hero
Facts that make great conversation-starters
A character trait that made the person heroic and that readers can aspire to
