| Abstract | This fun and accessible graphic novel for middle grade readers brings to light the lives of great but lesser-known Black scientists. Great Minds of Science is a kid-friendly introduction to some of the greatest scientists in history--doctors, engineers, mathematicians, and biologists. Each of them faced challenges as they rose to the top of their professions, but they didn't back down. They kept experimenting and questioning and learning, and they made significant contributions in each of their scientific fields. |
