From Booklist:
Gr. 3-4. This paperback original from the Milestone Books series features Nellie Bly, who came to the attention of the Pittsburgh Dispatch with a letter to the editor signed Lonely Orphan Girl. The editors decided to hire her even though young women were not routinely employed in 1885. Over the next decade Bly made her mark through muckraking journalism and her fame with a 72-day trip around the world. Krensky brings Bly's story to life in this vivid account of her years as a journalist. Well suited to readers in the chapter-book stage, the page design is kid friendly. Guay contributes a number of lively, attractive black-and-white illustrations. A chronology and a bibliography are appended. Carolyn Phelan
