Whether building a roller coaster to ride down the shed roof, rescuing her neighbors from an angry dog, or narrowly escaping injury on a runaway sled, Amelia Earhart as a young girl displayed the courage and determination that led her to become the most famous woman aviator on earth. Winner of the ForeWord Magazine Book of the Year Award and the Parent's Choice designation of an Outstanding Title, Amelia Earhart, Young Air Pioneer features the childhood adventures of the pilot who left the plains of Kansas to fly all over the world.
