Amelia Lost

Title: Amelia Lost: The Life and Disappearance of Amelia Earhart

Author: Candace Fleming

Pages: 118

Genre: Biography

Grade: B+

Synopsis: This book alternates chapters between Amelia's youth and growing up and the extensive search for her and her airplane after it went missing.

My Review: I read this book with Ada and Kate.  Kate lost interest pretty quickly, while Ada enjoyed the book although it is probably written for kids a few years older than her.  Everybody knows the basic story of Amelia Earhart, but I don't think that I've ever read a biography of her or read much about her exploits prior to her ill-fated last flight.
