review:
'Mae Jemison' by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara with illustrations by Janna Morton is a biography for young readers of the first black woman in space.

Mae Jemison dreamed of going to space when she was young. She was inspired by Star Trek and specifically Nichelle Nichols. It took her a while because NASA had to change, but she became an astronaut and inspired young people. She even showed up on an episode of Star Trek!

I love the Mae Jemison story and it's told here very well. The illustrations are great too!
