Velva Jean Hart, the fiercely independent heroine of Jennifer Niven's debut novel, Velva Jean Learns to Drive, returns in a captivating adventure that literally sends her soaring. Bridling under the limitations faced by a woman in rural Appalachia and fueled by the memory of her late Mama telling her to "live out there," Velva Jean hits the road to pursue her dream of singing at the Grand Ole Opry. After a string of auditions, she begins to lose hope-until her brother pays her a surprise visit and treats Velva Jean to a flying lesson that ignites a brand new dream: to become a female pilot. After Pearl Harbor, Velva Jean signs up for military service and gets her wings, risking her life-and her heart. Funny, poignant, and utterly unforgettable, Velva Jean Learns to Fly will have fans cheering all over again.
