A biography of George Washington Carver, written for young people. I liked how the author included Carver's faith in God as an integral part of his life and work and success. It was told in the first person, so that made it more interesting. There are a few uses of the now-offensive "n---" word (as quotes from black-hating whites). And one instance of "millions of years" -- oddly, while talking about God's magnificent creation. I skipped the "n---" words and changed millions to thousands.
