All about Amelia Earhart / Lew Freedman ; illustrations by Kristen Cella.

Amelia Earhart (other title)
Freedman, Lew, (author.). Cella, Kristen, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Amelia Earhart gained world fame as the most skilled pilot of her time. As a daring and courageous aviator, she was the first female pilot to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. Although flight would always be closest to Amelia's heart, she had other interests too. She was a social worker, an author, a clothing designer, and an educator. Most importantly, in all of her pursuits, Amelia worked hard to promote the rights and equality of women. Amelia proved that female pilots were just as capable and courageous as male pilots. Her achievements made her an important part of our history." -- Page [4] cover.
