Amelia Earhart is an inspiration to women as she defied expectations and followed her dreams of becoming a pilot. I loved this book. It was a brief introduction into Amelia Earhart’s life. The illustrations really caught my attention. I love that the book teaches children about real people that have influenced the world in a fun and easy to understand way. Opinion; Amelia Earheart was a very fascinating woman and role model that children can look up to today. I loved how this book focuses on her accomplishments rather than her disappearance. This gives her more credit than just a mystery but an actual person that contributed to women being in aviation. I also liked that the book included Earhart being president of the Ninety-nines showing that she was making strides for women. The illustrations of the book don't do Earhart justice as the book is kind of dull. For me, it didn't properly convey the excitement over Earhart's accomplishments.
