by Mae Jemison

MY HERO recommends this book to young adult readers.

Synopsis
Mae Jemison made history as the first African-American woman in space. But she's also taken center stage as an actress, scientist, doctor, and teacher-not to mention all the "top ten" lists she's made, including People's 50 Most Beautiful People AND the 1999 White House Project's list of the 7 women most likely to be elected President. The adventures of her life make for a truly compelling read. And to top it all off, with her charming sense of humor, Mae is a remarkable storyteller. The variety and richness of Mae Jemison's experiences will inspire every reader who picks up this book.

It is great that Mae Jemison is in the Nasa and seeing what is in space and helping people when you were a medical doctor From Katherine Vasquez
