I thought this book was right up the alley of our youngsters here at CFNA. It helps tie the idea of crossfit and real life applications together. It proves that through hard work and perserverance anything that you set your mind to can be accomplished.
BOOK NAME: Amelia Lost
AUTHOR: Candace Fleming
AUTHOR: Candace Fleming
The book Amelia Lost tells the story of Amelia Earhart, a courageous woman pilot who encouraged women to chase their dreams. The story begins with Amelia's birth, and tells the entire story of her life until her disappearance.
Amelia was always an adventurous person. Throughout her entire life, Amelia proved that you can overcome any challenge. She had many difficulties in her family life, like her father's drinking issues, and her parents' divorce. She also had many challenges in aviation, like issues with her airplane's radio, and bad weather. Yet that did not discourage Amelia from doing what she loved most; flying! Amelia broke many aviation records, including being the woman who flew to the highest altitude, being the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean, being the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean alone, and others.
Amelia's biggest record was to be the first woman to fly around the world at its widest point. Yet unlike her other records, this one she never achieved. She got lost on her trip, and was never found.
In this book, the author tells the story of Amelia Earhart's life in great detail. In between each chapter, the author puts stories of people who heard Amelia's cry for help when she was lost.
It is amazing how much Amelia encouraged women not to give up on their dreams because of their gender. Amelia always showed the world that women can achieve great things just as much as men. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt said right after the search for Amelia was terminated, 'I'm sure Amelia's last words were, 'I have no regrets.'
