This is an interesting book about Katherine Johnson. Sentences are very simple, adapted for younger readers. There is a lot of these short sentences, and it could get a bit confusing at times. It's good that this book contains photographs, but I'm not sure about the design. I am missing something here.

I enjoyed this book about Katherine Johnson. The book was very informative and did a great job summarizing her accomplishments. I know it is for children learning to read longer books but I think it would have benefitted from a few more pictures of Katherine Johnson throughout the years.

This book did a good job giving an over the information of Katherine Johnson's life. Once again, they could have been more specific and given more information, but it was not bad as a starting point.

Part of a series of VERY early readers, this gives us just a hundred or two words about its subject, with clear, large-font sentences on the text pages and full-page images on those facing. The benefits of the book come from the end, when we get tips on us too becoming a "Hidden Figure" such as our subject, as before then it's really just too infant-friendly to actually convey that much information. She grew up in West Virginia, so here's a page with some trees on it, then taught – so here's a page of old school desks. Yeesh. I'm all for engaging with STEM subjects at the right age – this just didn't seem to be aimed at one of those.

A quick read for kids that I found very informative since Katherine Johnson was not as well known of a figure as she deserves to be given everything that she did. I think it'd be paired well with a unit about women in science.
