Betty Greene
The Girl Who Longed to Fly
Read the true story of Betty Greene, who helped set up the Mission Aviation Fellowship.
Betty wanted to learn to fly from the age of 7, and when she grew up, that’s exactly what she did. When World War II started, Betty used her skills to serve with the Women Airforce Service Pilots (also known as WASPs). She even became part of a research project that sent pilots way up high, through the stratosphere!
Once the war had ended, she brought her passion for flying and her passion for the Lord Jesus together, and helped to set up a mission which is known today as the Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF).
Throughout her life, Betty made over 4,640 flights and served in 12 countries, landing in around 20 more.
This beautifully illustrated children’s biography of Betty Greene (1920-1997) is part of a series designed to show kids that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
These stories can be read to young children or enjoyed independently by early readers.
