Ruth Law Thrills a Nation (Reading Rainbow Book) by Don Brown,
Sandpiper, 1995, pbk, 32 pp. Ages: 4-8. My family loves to read books about airplanes and aviation; therefore, I was suprised to learn about Ruth Law, who I had never heard of before. She is a rather remarkable woman of courage, ambition, and fortitude. In 1916, Ruth Law set an American record for flying non-stop cross country, starting in Chicago and flying east. Brown's enthusiam carries the reader as we learn about this extaordinary woman and her amazing adventure.
