Grace, an aspiring young journalist, is excited when Amelia Earhart arrives in her town of Trepassey, Newfoundland, on June 4, 1928. Earhart wants to become the first female passenger to cross the Atlantic Ocean by air. After trying to get airborne for nearly two weeks, Earhart and her pilot unload all the excess fuel and take off. Grace is there to see them-and to receive Earhart's telegram announcing their arrival in Ireland after twenty hours and forty minutes in flight. Introduction. Discussion of panel illustrations. Bibliography and suggested reading. Two-color illustrations.
