"Superb example of non-fiction for children. Full of accurate information, makes Amelia real, and by the words and structure creates an emotional response. Wow. Won the Orbis Pictus award this year."
"when i first learned i had to read this for class, and i brought a picture of the cover up on the screen, i thought amelia was shooting laser beams out of her eyes like a robot. imagine my disappointment... i never really understood the amelia earhart fascination: she was just a pretty girl who got herself lost. mysteriously. she is famous for having failed. mysteriously. and we will love our failures. but i know she paved the way for spunky girls everywhere, and lord knows i havent done anything in my life worth having a picture book devoted to, so what the hell? goggle up, ladies, and take charge. just bring a compass, yeah?"
"I love this book so very much. I recently returned at my pubic library this afternoon. I love learning about Amelia Earhart. This very good for kids ages 7 to 10. I just turned 11, but still it's a great book."
