Amazing book on Katherine Johnson's life and achievements.

This is a Ready to Read Level Three book, which utilizes difficult sentence structure, challenging vocabulary, and more complex plots.

I really enjoyed this book. It was filled with tons of information, but written in a way that was interesting and engaging. I also loved the empowering message of the book that you can learn anything if you want to.

The writing in the book was very well done. Short chapters helped break up information and interesting illustrations were used in combination with the text.

At the end of the book, there is some more information of star navigation, space, and math related careers. There is also a quiz in the back to test reading comprehension.

Wonderful, wonderful book. Johnson is an inspiring person and a great role model, especially for girls interested in STEM fields.

I just love this series.
