As a kid, Lonnie Johnson liked to invent things. He often faced prejudice as an African American growing up in the segregated southern United States, but he eventually became an engineer for the US Air Force and NASA. He was working on a different invention when he came up with the idea for a new type of water gun. Johnson knew his toy was more powerful than other squirt guns--he just needed to find a way to make the Super Soaker available to kids all over the country. Learn how Johnson overcame many challenges to become a brilliant engineer and inventor. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

I absolutely loved this book. Throughout the book we are not only given great facts about Lonnie Johnson, but we are also given quotes from him on different pages. The quotes are motivational, and give a genuine feel to the book. Whenever I think of biographies, I think of people who are not with us anymore, but that isn't the case at all. Lonnie Johnson is still alive today, and I think his accomplishments should be talked about more after reading about him. Lonnie went through many hardships to accomplish what he did, and I think this book shows that, even if the odds are against you, you can still accomplish your goals. We aren't shown enough African American engineers, and scientists, in classrooms today. We must incorporate more diverse figures within the classroom in order to have bountiful libraries for our little readers. I would love to find more biographies about Lonnie Johnson because I think he is very interesting. ( )
