Patricia's Vision by Michelle Lord
An inspiring picture book biography of Dr. Patricia Bath, an African American woman whose contributions to the field of ophthalmology have helped save and restore sight for countless people around the world.
"The text begs to be read aloud; the reader will find onomatopoeia, stylish repetition, and short sentences that add a zippy cadence to the story’s rhythmHarris’s rich illustrations depict important moments in Bath’s life and include interesting details: medical equipment, an eyeball or two, and a schematic of her invention. An inspirational story of a woman who worked hard and never gave up on her dream to rid the world of blindness. A book all children should hear or read."—School Library Journal
