A Picture Book of Amelia Earhart
Author: David A. Adler
Illustrator: Jeff Fisher
Genre: Biography
Grade Level: 3-5
This book is a complete biography of Amelia Earhart's life. We learn her birth place in this book along with many significant things that happened throughout her life. Such as how she studied medical research, taught English to immigrant children, worked as a social worker, paid for her own flying lessons, and was only interested in planes when she reached her 20's. It goes over her life all the way to the day of her disappearance and what people thought happened to her.
The illustrations are very colorful and fun. It accompanies her journey and adds an image to the narration to make a complete story. The pictures are realistic since this is a biography.
I would use this in my classroom for a book report on Amelia Earhart. They can use this as a reference for their research as well as learning about important people in history.
