Flygirl is a book about a girl who wants to fly like her dad. This book was so great but left me in suspense because it doesn't say what happened after she left to be a WASP.
5 stars.
I loved how she pretended to be white.She was very brave. 5 stars.
I though this book was going to be boring, but after about chapter 9 it got pretty descent. I think Ida was brave for pretending to be white and joining the WASP. 4 stars.
i love this book becuse the gil was veary brave. 5 stars.
