This book is about Amelia Earhart. Amelia was a pilot, a record breaker, a nurse and a very independent woman. The first time she saw a plane, she basically thought it was a piece of junk. Eventually though, she learned to love planes and loved to fly. She even broke some records. I liked this book because she followed her dreams even though everyone said not to do it. I also like this book because I think Amelia is a good role model. I recommend this book to people that like non-fiction. ( )

The books starts with Amelia's early life and leads up to why and how she became a pilot and was determined to make it.
