A Picture Book of George Washington Carver

32 pp. | Holiday | March, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1429-9 $$15.95
(4) K-3 Picture Book Biography series. Illustrated by Dan Brown. The latest addition to this series introduces the life of the African-American agriculturist from his enslaved birth to his constant quest for education and his scientific achievements. The watercolor illustrations are accomplished, but the demands of the easy-to-read format lead Adler to simplify his portrayal; Carver's controversial accommodationist race-relations stand is mentioned only in the brief author's note.
