The doctor with an eye for eyes: The story of Dr. Patricia Bath - As a
girl coming of age during the Civil Rights Movement, Patricia Bath
made it her mission to become a doctor. When obstacles like racism,
poverty, and sexism threatened this goal, she persevered —
brightening
the world with a game-changing treatment for blindness!
The secret garden of George Washington Carver - The inspirational
story of George Washington Carver and his childhood secret garden is
brought to life in this picture book.
Whoosh!: Lonnie Johnson's super-soaking stream of inventions - A love
for rockets, robots, inventions, and a mind for creativity were
present in Lonnie Johnson's early life. Growing up in a house full of
brothers and sisters, Lonnie demonstrated persistence and a passion
for problem solving that became the cornerstone of his career as an
engineer and his work with NASA. But it is Lonnie's invention of the
Super Soaker water gun that has made the most memorable splash in
popular culture.
