Amelia Earhart: The Legend of the Lost Aviator

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by David Craig. The mystery of Amelia Earhart's disappearance may never be solved, this biography suggests, but her legacy will endure. Though the illustrations sometimes feel forced or even unnecessary (e.g., an image of the famed aviator rising out of the ocean), the archival photos and rich text, complete with informative sidebars and Earhart's own words, create an insightful portrait of an American icon.
