An Inspiration

Bessie Coleman died from a plane crash on April 30th in Jacksonville,Florida.Her body was brutally crushed my the old plane she had been flying.Many people were devestated at the death of such an inspiration.As a sign of respect thousands visited her gravestone to their goodbyes to Bessie Coleman, the woman with a dream to fly - to fly like a bird.After Bessie Coleman`s death, a flight school was opened under her name.Her ambition was to set up a flight school for anybody who wanted to fly.Every year students from Bessie Coleman`s flight school fly over her gravestone on the pitiful day of her death to show respect toward their inspiration.

I think that Bessie Coleman was an inspiration to many because she was determined and courageuos too.Bessie Coleman was exceedingly brave because she took many risks in the air and on land to raise enough money to open a flight school.This example shows how determined she was too .She was an inspiration to millions of people from her time and ours.She showed people all over the world that it is possible to live your dream but you have to go get it.

I learned many new things from this non fiction book.I learned all about Bessie Coleman and her life and the gigantic effect she had on the world .I also learned about her hardships she faced and any African American faced during those racist periods of time.In addition, i also learned much about how difficult it was to be a woman and to have a wild dream.These are most of the things that i learned from this book.

There was a point in the book that explained the topic of how difficult is was to be both African American and a woman with a dream to fly in which i thought the author did not express the information enough.But otherwise i liked the author`s style and tone ,this book of Bessie Coleman definately inspired me.She is truly an inspiration.
