**Groundbreaking American pilot Amelia Earhart is the 2nd hero in the
New York Times bestselling picture book biography series for ages 5 to
8. (Cover may vary)

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
