Me and the Sky: Captain Beverley Bass, Pioneering Pilot by Cynthia Williams, Beverley Bass

4.0

This is the story of a young woman who would not let anyone stop her from fulfilling her dreams of flight. I enjoyed it very much, and found the illustrations and text charming, but was totally caught off guard when the historical note mentioned that Berverley Bass was one of the pilots who landed a passenger plane in Gander, Newfoundland, on September 11, 2001. Why wasn't this incredibly powerful event illustrated and dramatized as part of the story? This is still a great book, but I feel cheated out of what it could have been.
