    “Book Descriptions: The empowering story of a real-life Rosie the Riveter who served as a Women Airforce Service Pilot.

    A daughter of the Great Depression, Dorothy Lucas yearned to discover all that she was capable of. After the devastating news of Pearl Harbor, Dorothy decided to do her part and enlist to serve as a Women Airforce Service Pilot (WASP). After hours of flight school and roaring engines, Dorothy and her fellow WASPs risked their lives to tow targets in the air for male fighter pilots in training. Through many mechanical scares and smoke-filled cockpits, Dorothy remained brave and committed to her job--defying gravity and defying the odds.

    With lyrical text from Meghan P. Browne and striking illustrations by Brooke Smart, Dorothy the Brave tells an untold story of how women contributed to the war effort and helped keep America safe from harm.”
