Age range 8 to 11 Real-world technology projects pair up with inspiring biographies of female computer scientists to make a full-color book that will have kids eager to develop their own apps! Do you like solving problems? Are you dying to automate even the simplest of processes? Do you always need to know how things work?

In Gutsy Girls Go for Science: Programmers with STEM Projects for Kids, readers ages 8 to 11 meet five female programmers who made revolutionary discoveries and inventions that changed the way people used technology! Ada Lovelace, Grace Hopper, the ENIAC women, Dorothy Vaughan, and Margaret Hamilton all broke through barriers of both gender and race to succeed in a field they loved.
