5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a well written book about an amazing woman.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Brave Bessie: Flying Free (Hardcover)
This inspiring story is not to be missed! Bessie Coleman was an exceptional woman. The author, Lillian Fisher has done her justice in this lovely little biography. The information is very thoroughly researched and presented in a clean, engaging manner. Especially helpful for students is the glossary and fine index. The period photographs and other illustrations interspersed throughout the text enhance the story. What a fine way to become acquainted with Brave Bessie!Pat Szelenyi, Former Library Branch Manager

5.0 out of 5 stars
A vivid account of a remarkable woman.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Brave Bessie: Flying Free (Hardcover)
Bessie Coleman's determined spirit and love of flying comes across vividly in this biography of a young black woman living in a time when surmounting obstacles were a way of life. From the moment young Bessie looks up from the cotton fields to see a plane soaring overhead, she knows she wants to fly. She accomplishes her goal and not only becomes the first black aviatrix, but a popular areobatic pilot as well. Lillian Fisher writes a well researched, refreshing story that reveals the courage and stamina of a remarkable woman. A must read for children and adults alike.
