Review Quotes:
" Black Women in Science earns two A's--one for accuracy and one for authenticity! As an education professor, I can't emphasize enough how important those two characteristics are in quality children's literature. Dr. Pellum delivers facts about noteworthy historical figures in a relatable voice and an easy-to-read text. Young readers will enjoy making connections between themselves and the women in the book, while also being inspired to explore STEM topics in their daily life. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to increase interest and engage a child in STEM development." --Dr. Sylvia Y. Cain, Professor of Education
