5 stars
Amazing non-fiction read. This is a Level Three book, which means it is a long story with a complex plot as well as challenging vocabulary. This was such a fascinating read. I really enjoyed it and actually learned a lot about some truly inspiring women. The book consists of five chapters that tell the story of how a group of women figured out how to program ENIAC and their impact on technology today. At the end of the book, there is additional information about the history of programming, the development of the numbers one and zero, computer facts, and some other women who impacted computer technology. There is also a short quiz in the back of the book to test reading comprehension. The book is fairly wordy with a lot of information so it is probably best read over multiple sittings. Really great book and an amazing story. I wish I had read about these impressive women who I was a child.
