Acerca de esta escucha

In the summer of 1937, Amelia Earhart is the most famous woman in the world - a record-breaking pilot, a best-selling author, and a modern woman shattering the glass ceiling in the early days of aviation.

And then she vanishes.

In Tampa, Florida, 15-year-old Lizzie Friedlander spends her afternoons glued to her father’s radio, tapping into the enormity of a world she longs to travel. Lizzie can hardly believe her ears when she picks up a radio signal from a faraway source that sets her heart racing: “Amelia Earhart calling SOS!”

As Lizzie copies down the transmissions, it’s clear that the Amelia Earhart is not lost at sea, as the newspapers are dreading, but alive and calling for help. In a race against time, Lizzie must convince the local Coast Guard that the radio transmissions were real and that Earhart's life hangs in the balance. But will anyone believe her?

Written for audio by David R. Gillham, the acclaimed, New York Times best-selling author of City of Women, and performed by Emily Bauer and Hilary Huber, Alone with the Stars is a breathtaking and illuminating tribute to a woman who risked her life in pursuit of new heights, and the young girl who tried desperately to save her when everything went wrong. Inspired by actual events, Alone with the Stars reveals, in riveting detail, the final moments in the life of a great heroine, whose courage changed the world forever.

Not a bad performance but I cringed at the constant feminist ranting. I felt beaten about the head with it.

Feminist rant

It is no surprise that a 15-year-old would be fascinated with a Amelia Earhart. She opened amazing possibilities for the future of all women

Stirs my imagination

Nice story need more details. Hard to follow abrupt ending felt like story incomplete The book just stopped. No mystery. Just something missing

Ends too abruptly hard to follow

The historic references to the facts, the depiction of America's culture at the time, and the lively narration made this a very enjoyable read.

Enjoyable portrayal of Amelia Earhart 's last flig

The storyline is good. It is an interesting idea having a child intercept a message of great importance. The part that made me give such a low rating for the story is because of the amount of bad language. It could have done with our all of the cuss words.

not for kids

Again, these are such teasers! Now I want to know more about Amelia Earhart. Going to need to look up more about her.

Ended too soon

Exciting, interesting, emotional, it appealed to my love of history. The things we do in this life can have a grand effect later, and maybe in eternity.

Breath Taking

I enjoyed this story. It was interesting and just the right length. Leaves you wanting to research more about Amelia Earhart.

Really interesting

Really well told. Couple of things that I'd change.... The performers' voices, at times were irritating in that the s sound was sharp and really painful for me to listen to. Might just be me though.

Thinking that those was a good listen for families, I put it on in the car. When Lizzie's hey dad are at the Coast Guard asthma the end, there is a torrent of language with F bombs coming at quick intervals.

All in all, it gave me another interesting insight into the times and disappearance of Amelia Earhart.

Very informative and entertaining listen
