Recensioner i media
"A suspenseful, well-researched story that captures the drama of Earhart’s life and last flight."— Kirkus Reviews"A must purchase for libraries, this book (and this series) will certainly be a big hit with middle grade readers."— The School Library Journal"The Who HQ Graphic Novels series does an excellent job of quickly engaging readers by capturing the drama and immediacy of pivotal historic events…'Who Was the Daring Pioneer of the Skies?' begins with a press conference during which Amelia Earhart announces her upcoming flight to misogynistic reporters and eventually segues to increasingly frantic members of the Coast Guard awaiting her longoverdue arrival at the Howland Islands…These graphic offerings manage to pack in an impressive amount of information and are sure to appeal to middle-grade readers."— Booklist
