She played with her sister,Muriel, chasing frogs and having fun.

One day she and her uncle built a homemade rollercoaster in her backyard.

Amelia tried it and CRASHED! She said "I felt like I was flying."

One day she and her dad went to an air show. There Amelia rode in her first plane. "I knew I had to Fly"

Her family helped her get enough money to get a plane, flight lessons and her pilot's license. 

she named her first plane Canary after its beautiful yellow color.

She made a trip across the Atlantic with pilot Bill Stultz and co-pilot Slim Gordon. She was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic. President Coolidge deemed her as a US hero.
