Adventure. Female Piolets. History. This is a graphic novel depicting the story of Amelia Earhart, the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. This is a story of a woman who chased her dream of flying the plane unapologetically and let nothing come in between herself and her heart's deepest desire: to pilot a plane all on her own. It's a story about a woman who defended her rights to pursue her ambition by breaking into the aviation industry - a man's world during her times - and by doing so became a poster girl for women empowerment. The book is full of engaging illustrations depicting Earhart at various stages of her professional career, beautifully portraying her resilience and perseverance in her long journey of breaking world records. A great read that shatters all kinds of gender stereotypes encouraging readers, especially young women, to pursue their dreams and careers no matter what and to believe in themselves. The message is loud and clear - the world is your oyster, aim for the stars! Kasturi Roy Bardhan -- The School Librarian * https://www.sla.org.uk/the-school-librarian *
