Fabulous Bio on one of America's Best Citizens!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I found this book to be well written and easy to read. I was totally blow away by George Washington Carver's life story! This book should be a must read in every classroom, especially for Black History month of February, when children are learning about the minority influences and contributions to the history of the United States of America. I HIGHLY recommend the reading of this book.
...to role model of the highest order.

This book kept me spellbound. I shared it with my 11 year old son and he enjoyed it as well. It is written in language even much younger children could follow. It was informative and a super book.
