Description
Flygirl by Sherri L. Smith is a story about a young woman's determination to pursue her dream of flying.
In 1940s America, Ida Mae Jones faces significant barriers when she wants to fly, but the formation of the Women Airforce Service Pilots during World War II offers her a chance to fulfill her ambition.
However, Ida soon learns that denying herself and her family is a heavy burden, and that it's not what you do, but who you are, that truly matters.
