Description

Joanne Simpson never gave up on her passion and didn’t let men intimidate her or destroy her dream. She eventually earned that doctorate and the respect of those who ignored her before. This brief biography teaches kids the importance of working hard on something you believe in, standing up for yourself, and never giving up. When Joanne Simpson (1923-2010) was a girl, she sailed her boat beneath the puffy white clouds of Cape Cod. As a pilot, she flew her plane so high, its wings almost touched them. And when World War II began and Joanne moved to the University of Chicago, a professor asked her to teach Air Force officers about those very clouds and the weather-changing winds.

As soon as the war ended, Joanne decided to seriously study the clouds she had grown to love so much. Her professors laughed. They told her to go home. They told her she was no longer needed. They told her, "No woman ever got a doctorate in meteorology. And no woman ever will." Jiang stopped carrying a bowl in one hand and supported his forehead in the other, patienty listening to his bullshit. i don't remember any cheating, but indeed JT HIDES too many things. big spoiler: he's one of the mastermind, Red Queen/Queen of Hearts, working together with the big bad, King of Spade. basically they were working together, usurping the police. JT got promotions, King of Spade got early warnings so the caught people were only the low ones, never the higher-ups. even in later part of novel, almost ending/last arc, JT literally betrayed YX in front of the enemies, with guns pointing at him. imagine the angst, disappointment, pain etc

It was during these early explorations that she found her love of clouds, and her fascination with the science of meteorology. Proving herself to be an apt student of the field, she was hired during World War II to teach weather officers about flight conditions. Yet when the war ended and Joanne expressed an interest in earning a PhD in meteorology (which would make her the first woman to ever do so), her male professors and peers laughed at her and her studies of cloud formations. But Joanne’s passion and intellect would not be determined by the voices of others, and she went on to show that clouds, like women, are more powerful than anyone had yet realized. Overall I think this is a great biography of a woman worth knowing about, and interestingly covers the science of meteorology in an age-appropriate way. Pasando a los personajes: Tuve a Yan Xie de fondo de pantalla por un buen, buen tiempo. Lo amo; es el estándar. Tiene dinero, está bueno, nunca dudó de Jiang Ting a pesar de que todo apuntaba a él y es EL HOMBRE, grrrr.

Breaking Through the Clouds is completed, you can discover others if you have been done on reading this.When I found footage of the women during the race, their eyes sparkled and their essence shined.These women were literally flying outside of conventional wisdom and having fun while doing it.My hope was to capture the light the women generated and share it with others searching for their own passion. This is what inspired me to re-tell their story to a larger audience and why I felt I had to produce the film. I was looking for role models in my own journey and struggling to find a community where I could contribute any talents I may have in a meaningfully way. These pioneering pilots from nearly ninety years ago illustrated how to follow one's own inner energy to spark a community into action and forge a new path. Their contagious enthusiasm swept others into action,helping to manifest their goals, and created positive change in the world.

Empiezo diciendo que pasé vergüenza por culpa de este libro. Verán, yo quería hacerme la cool delante de mi profesor de química (comencé la novela cuando estaba en mi último año de secundaria) y estaba yo, muy seriamente, explicándole: «Mire, estoy leyendo una novela en donde utilizan estos componentes para producir droga y...». Pensé que el hombre me estaba oyendo por educación. Note: A copy of this book was provided to The Baby Bookworm by a representative of the publisher in exchange for an honest review.)I've said before I'm not a fan of good guys, but with this, it sparked my interest. Yan Xie in this case, is the good guy. He's all these things, but he's also a cop. A no nonsense cop. He doesn't tolerance anything out of line, and he just can't help yelling at his subordinates to do the same. NovelForest - Lets enjoy with Breaking Through the Clouds.

When I watch the weather, no matter online or on TV, I don’t think twice when I see a female meteorologist. In fact, at least in my area, I’m quite certain the women outnumber the men. That wasn’t the case before Joanne Simpson, who in 1949 stubbornly fought for the right to become the first woman in the world to earn the title of doctor of meteorology. Unfortunately, even after earning the degree, because she was a woman, she didn’t have the respect of her fellow meteorologists. She was forced to continually fight for the freedom to conduct in depth research in the study of clouds, her area of expertise. Thanks to her persistence, she finally succeeded in breaking down the barriers and completed her cloud model. This study led to a new branch of science which helps scientists make the predictions we take for granted today: Will it be partly sunny today? Will we have snow showers in the afternoon? Will we have blue skies tomorrow? Returning home to Wood's Hole, Massachusetts, Joanne continued to study clouds, discovering more and more surprising things about them. Unafraid, she would fly under, over and through all kinds of clouds, including the scary cumulonimbi clouds filling with gusting winds and rain, eventually coming to understand the power of these massive clouds.
