Once upon a time there lived a girl who swept floors and washed dishes and was little more than a servant to her family. Until, one day, an invitation arrived. It was an invitation to a new country and a new beginning—a place where Caroline Herschel’s dreams, her fascination with the night sky, and her extraordinary talent would open up a world of beauty and renown, and make her the belle of the scientific ball. From humble beginnings and in spite of many obstacles, Caroline and her brother William developed and built the best telescope in the world—in their backyard! Together they went on to discover a new planet, new moons, and vast arrays of unknown nebulae and comets. From a child who seemed doomed to a life of servitude, Caroline grew into a woman recognized by kings and queens—and a scientist whose work and discoveries continue to shine today. Pamela S. Turner invites readers into Caroline’s true Cinderella story in this inspiring account of the transformative power of curiosity and the magic—better than any fairy tale—of science.Ver livro

Vera and Mamma are headed out for a march, but it’s not just any march: it’s October 24 in Reykjavík, and on this day in 1975, the women of Iceland took the day off, walked out of their homes and away from their jobs—as farmworkers, butchers, and fisherwomen; wives, daughters, and children—and marched to demand equality and change, chanting: “I dare! I can! I will!” And they did, inspiring and empowering girls and women to make change, not just in their country, but all around the world.Ver livro

Mike Morrison tacked to starboard, and the Mister Mike sailed around the giant prow of the U.S.S. Nevada. The whole of Pearl Harbor was filled with the mighty ships of the United States Pacific fleet. It was early morning, Dec. 7, 1941. Later Mike remembered that he had grinned at his big brother Jeff, Lt., USAF, then at Mary Jane, his shadow from next door. He had checked his watch --- 7:55 exactly. Then he had glanced up at the sky to watch a small black speck grow larger and larger. It couldn’t be, but it was—a Jap Zero! In seconds the harbor was a fiery inferno of sinking ships. The Japanese had attacked Pearl Harbor! What happened in the next few hours will never be forgotten by them—or by any American. The Air Corps fought back from crippled planes. Jeff, one of the lucky few, managed to get his P-40 fighter into the air to strike back. But those on land and sea did their jobs, too. Explosions rocked Wheeler Field, and Mary Jane pitched in with nurses and soldiers alike to save the lives of the injured. It was Mike, however, who volunteered for the strangest assignment of all. As he paused on the edge of the boat ready to dive down to the men in the sunken ship, he knew that what happened next would be his greatest adventure. This USA Back Then book is an exciting story about the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. It is based on true historic events, and it provides an entertaining way to learn more about the amazing history of the United States of America.Ver livro
