Hi Everyone,
Just stopping by to let you know about a book I am waiting on:
Summary from Goodreads:
Eileen Collins was an aviation pioneer her entire career, from her crowning achievements as the first woman to command an American space mission as well as the first to pilot the space shuttle to her early years as one of the Air Force’s first female pilots. She was in the first class of women to earn pilot’s wings at Vance Air Force Base and was their first female instructor pilot. She was only the second woman admitted to the Air Force’s elite Test Pilot Program at Edwards Air Force Base. NASA had such confidence in her skills as a leader and pilot that she was entrusted to command the first shuttle mission after the Columbia disaster, returning the US to spaceflight after a two-year hiatus. Since retiring from the Air Force and NASA, she has served on numerous corporate boards and is an inspirational speaker about space exploration and leadership.
Eileen Collins is among the most recognized and admired women in the world, yet this is the first time she has told her story in a book. It is a story not only of achievement and overcoming obstacles but of profound personal transformation. The shy, quiet child of an alcoholic father and struggling single mother, who grew up in modest circumstances and was an unremarkable student, she had few prospects when she graduated from high school, but she changed her life to pursue her secret dream of becoming an astronaut. She shares her leadership and life lessons throughout the book with the aim of inspiring and passing on her legacy to a new generation

Hi Everyone,
Stopping by with book #3 in the Oz book series. This was another crazy ride.
Did someone say Dorothy is back? Plus she is making new friends: Billina the Yellow Hen and Tik-Tok.
Summary from Amazon:
Ozma of Oz was published in 1907 as the third book of L. Frank Baum's Oz series. It was the first in which Baum clearly intended creating a series of Oz books. Most of the action takes place outside of the Land of Oz. Only the final two chapters take place in Oz itself. Dorothy again finds herself in the Emerald City with a desire to return home.
Happy Reading!
