Why is Flying Fillies a good way for kids to learn about WWII?

Flying Fillies turns real World War II history into an adventure kids want to finish. Through 12-year-old Dawn’s eyes, young readers meet the WASP, the first women in American aviation history to fly military aircraft.

  • Real history. The story is set at Avenger Field in Sweetwater, Texas, where the WASP trained.
  • “Looking Back” section. Nearly 50 pages of restored WWII photographs of real WASP in training, plus a glossary of 1940s words and WWII names.
  • Classroom-ready. “This book could easily be used in a classroom as an assigned text…” — Steve F., 6th Grade Teacher
  • Lessons that last. Courage, friendship and never giving up.

Who says history is boring? They just haven’t found the right book yet!

"Getting knocked down is an accident. You can't help that. But whether or not you stay down is up to you. That's your choice."

— Grandpa, Flying Fillies: The Sky's the Limit

Why do parents and teachers trust Flying Fillies?

Flying Fillies is praised by the museum that keeps the WASP story and by Kirkus Reviews, and it was a Publishers Weekly Booklife Prize semifinalist in 2022.

Real WWII history, told as an adventure kids won’t put down.
