Non-fiction book review - The Astronomer Who Questioned Everything

 

The Astronomer Who Questioned Everything By Laura Alary

 I love reading these children's biographies and recognizing what the reader is meant to apply to their own life from the details that the author gives focus. In this book Alary devotes most of the focus on Mitchell learning to ask questions, to be curious in an era that didn't encourage such things for girls. So the reader can gather the importance of thinking for yourself when it comes to innovation The story is fairly simple, easy enough for elementary readers to follow. The illustrations are stylized but not to a degree that makes them hard to follow. A solid addition to a picture book biography collection, especially one with a STEM focus.
