520    Based on the New York Times bestselling book and the 
       Academy Award-nominated movie, author Margot Lee Shetterly
       and Coretta Scott King Illustrator Honor Award winner 
       Laura Freeman bring the incredibly inspiring true story of
       four black women who helped NASA launch men into space to 
       picture book readers! This nonfiction picture book is an 
       excellent choice to share during homeschooling, in 
       particular for children ages 4 to 6. It's a fun way to 
       learn to read and as a supplement for activity books for 
       children.  Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, Katherine 
       Johnson, and Christine Darden were good at math…really 
       good.  They participated in some of NASA's greatest 
       successes, like providing the calculations for America's 
       first journeys into space. And they did so during a time 
       when being black and a woman limited what they could do. 
       But they worked hard. They persisted. And they used their 
       genius minds to change the world.  In this beautifully 
       illustrated picture book edition, we explore the story of 
       four female African American mathematicians at NASA, known
       as "colored computers," and how they overcame gender and 
       racial barriers to succeed in a highly challenging STEM-
       based career.  "Finally, the extraordinary lives of four 
       African American women who helped NASA put the first men 
       in space is available for picture book readers," proclaims
       Brightly in their article "18 Must-Read Picture Books of 
       2018." "Will inspire girls and boys alike to love math, 
       believe in themselves, and reach for the stars."
