This book was very informative about the dreams, challenges, and life of Mae Jemison. The book discussed how she was an excellent student in school and her many accomplishments throughout school. While at Cornell, Jemison was one of the only blacks in her class. In 1987, Jemison was one of the 15 out of 2,000 people chosen to travel to space. This is not so much a picture book and more less an informative book. ( ) This book is not for read aloud's, this would be for a student who finished their work early and is choosing to flip through it. Each page is packed with interesting information, facts, and pictures. As this is a information heavy book I would not recommend it often. This would be a book that a student could use as a resource when wanting to present information about Jemison. In this series of women in science, we are introduced to Mae Jemison, who is the first African American woman to travel into space. She was also a doctor, and a successful business woman. We are taken through her journey in becoming a woman in science, and the obstacles she had to overcome. At the age of 16, she was accepted into Stanford University. After graduating, she spent a lot of time working with refugees, and traveling to help others. She spent many years training to become an astronaut, and on September 12, 1992 she blasted off into space with six other astronauts. Mae now spends her days working with children and keeping them interested in science. Mae has accomplished so much in her life, and the books gives a detailed timeline at the end of the book to show her accomplishments. This book is a great way to show children that women can be astronauts too, and science is not just for boys. Though the book gives many facts about Mae, it is not written well. For someone who has accomplished so much, she should have a better written book about her. I was disappointed in the quality, and I would not recommend this for children. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
