Great for teens
I bought this for my 13 year old son, who doesnât like to read. Learning about people who looks like him, who are creative and successful is something I want him to learn more about because this is not taught in quality. Although, he doesnât like reading, I have him read a story daily then discuss it, which he seems more amicable in doing.

Informative book
Perfect for teaching about inventors. I learned a lot of interesting facts. Easy read
Kindle Customer –
Awe inspiring!
Although this book is rated for children 6 – 11, I think any adult would find this book extremely informative and educational. If not already, it should be in school libraries to serve as inspiration for Black and Brown children. In addition, I think other ethnic groups would benefit as well. It helps us to give more thought to how we view others.

More influential figures
This book is wonderful! In February it seems the same list of people are taught. Ruby Bridges, Martin Luther King, Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks. If we viewed black history as just American history I believe we could make leaps and bounds in societal relations. This book showed my eight and nine year old some of the many inventions that have had and continues to have a positive impact on society. This should be a required reading.
Curious, I’ve been searching for a few years now for a cure for my eczema. this seems promising. –
Great African American history
I originally bought this book for my grandchildren, it has so many interesting facts that I never knew about. So I’ve been reading it. I think they should have books like this in public schools. It’s a great education. As well as fun facts. It was an awesome buy.
