What a beautiful depiction of an African American hero. The story is written towards a child audience and highlights the life of George Washington Carver. I love how the pictures speak so much and could even tell the story without the words. Education is emphasized, which from an educator's standpoint, makes the book even better. I also appreciate how his life is shown from infancy 'til death which allows me to really connect to the character. ( )

I thought this was a very informative biography on George Washington Carver. It told about his life from when he was a young boy to when he died. It also told about his many inventions.
