Description

Discover the lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists. All of them achieved incredible things, yet each began life as a child with a dream. 

Meet Ada Lovelace, the British mathematician, and daughter of poet Lord Byron. From her early love of logic to her plans for the world's first computer program, learn about Ada's life in this mini-biography for readers as young as four years. This inspiring story of her life features a facts and photos section at the back.




My Thoughts

This book, which is an account of Ada Lovelace's life for young readers, is my first introduction to the Little People, Big Dreams series. 

This series of books tell short stories about artists, designers, and scientists who achieved extraordinary things and each began with a childhood dream. 

I love that a biographical lesson in history is teamed with wonderfully drawn illustrations to catch the attention of a child.
