Women Explorers of the Air: Harriet Quimby, Bessie Coleman, Amelia Earhart, Beryl Markham, Jacqueline Cochran | 
pickThis book summarizes the lives and accomplishments of five women who were early pioneers in aviation. Even though this book is geared towards ages 9-12, I enjoyed reading about all the brave woman who were courageous enough to learn to fly in the early days of aviation. Most of them were turned down to learn just because they were woman. One thing they had in common was their tenacity to reach their goal and accomplish what they wanted to do.
