Sinopse

In "The Girl Aviators on Golden Wings," Margaret Burnham invites readers into a thrilling narrative that intertwines adventure and the burgeoning spirit of early 20th-century aviation. The book is characterized by its vibrant prose and engaging dialogue, appealing to a young audience while encapsulating the era's fascination with flight. Set against a backdrop of aerial exploration and innovation, the plot follows a group of daring girls who challenge societal norms, embarking on a series of escapades as they navigate the skies in their remarkable aircraft. Burnham's deft ability to blend action with character development showcases her understanding of the themes of empowerment and camaraderie among young women, placing the work firmly within the context of early feminist literature. Margaret Burnham, a pioneer in children'Äôs literature, reflects her own experiences and observations of women'Äôs roles during a transformative period for both society and aviation. Her background, influenced by the increasing visibility of female aviators in a predominantly male field, allowed her to draw on real-life inspirations and create captivating narratives that resonate with themes of determination and resilience. This context undoubtedly fueled Burnham'Äôs commitment to depicting strong female characters who defy conventions. "The Girl Aviators on Golden Wings" is a must-read for those seeking adventure stories that champion young women's aspirations and courageous exploits. Perfect for readers of all ages, this book not only entertains but also serves as a reminder of the untold possibilities available to women, making it a timeless addition to any literary collection.

    The Weapon by Isaac Asimov - “You ask us of Mars for a weapon to save your world. We have it–but it is not for you Earthman. Men may die and planets perish, but we break not the law of the universe–Every civilization must work out its own destiny!” 
    In a future where totalitarian wars have nearly eradicated democracy on Earth, Preston Calvin travels to Mars seeking help from the advanced Martians. He asks for a chemical they used long ago to curb emotions like anger and hate, enabling them to reject war and violence. The Martians refuse, believing each civilization must forge its own path. 
    "The Weapon" is a short story by Isaac Asimov, written in September 1938 when he was 18 and first published in the May 1942 issue of Super Science Stories under the pseudonym H.B. Ogden. Asimov later forgot about this story, believing it was rejected and lost. Consequently, it was not included in his 1972 collection, The Early Asimov, where he listed it among eleven of his lost stories. However, while writing his autobiography, In Memory Yet Green (1979), Asimov found a diary entry that reminded him of its publication. He then obtained a copy of the magazine and ensured the story was included in the autobiography.
