Amelia Lost: The Life and Disappearance of Amelia Earhart by Candace Fleming

5.0

In anticipation of meeting Ms. Fleming next week at AISLE Survive, and because we were on our way to Purdue (where my daughter and I both lived in Earhart Hall--just a few years apart), I decided to read this. Growing up, I think I read everything I could about Amelia. (Wasn't she even the topic of some SRA passages?) This book does a wonderful job of weaving a story from several sources. Although it was very thorough, it still encourages me to read more. I hope to visit the Earhart papers at Purdue soon. This will be an excellent volume to share with students and lead to rich discussion.
