Flying Ace: The Story of Amelia Earhart

This book is a well written and interesting biography of Amelia Earhart.It includes many photographs of Earhart and interesting additional information about the era in which she lived. My daughter was fascinated by all the information about how different the opportunities for women were in the first half of this century. Earhart's life story was clearly explained and the photos,newspaper headlines,and illustrations added a wonderful realism to the biography.This book was a terrific introduction to biographies for my third grade daughter!
