I've been reading a lot of short stories from the Rebel Girls book. These stories focus on success of women, and their story from the beginning.
I think... I enjoyed this story the least out of all of the stories I've read so far..
I was a bit confused on where the story was going, and what her profession was, it was a bit unclear.
I thought she would be an author, then I thought she assisted in the development of airplanes, And finally I thought she assisted with development of the computers...
Which I guess in a way she did? Assist with coding.
I have a robotics background, and im very interested in pursuing coding so I was nice to follow the story. she seemed like a very hard worker and determined no matter what. But the direction of the story was lost to me at times.

An energizing, and uplifting book on the Rebel Girls series! The life of Ada Lovelace is depicted well one will be motivated and, encouraged on the life of Ada.
"Ada had so much energy that sitting still was simply impossible."
Where can one find such energy and enthusiasm? Must read for all kids and teens. A short and illustrated book that keeps you interested. Pick up the book!

A copy of this book was provided by netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
It's an fun overview of Ada Lovelace's life made written in engaging language for younger readers. It goes more in depth than most other books about Lovelace that have been aimed at younger readers. It's a nice, quick read.

If it's a Rebel Girls story, I want to hear it. Inspiration for curious girls the world over.

I'm really glad I read this book. Not only did I find out about Ada Lovelace, but this book also made me read more about Mary Sommervile. I'm really glad!
