being delayed.” later in the flight judith found herself flying through a storm during which the plane was struck by lightning. “in all my years of flying, ive never been so frightened.” she says.and then within four hours in australia, there was something wrong with the engine, which nearly forced her down into the ocean. on reaching sydney, judith decided she was able to fly on and when she finally touched down at london, heathrow, her tiny single-engined plane had taken her over 27,000 miles in 15 days. she had broken 29 world records including the fastest-ever-round-the-world flight by

the mark first?” i replied.“its not important. you and mom always say its learning, not marks, that counts.”“right, but id like to learn about your mark. is it lower than a d?”“dad, you have to

a half-hour to decide whether to sign it.then i asked to see the composition that she had written. on the top of the composition was a bright red d. i asked her if “d” was the title of the
