In Ada Lovelace Cracks the Code, Ada uses her incredible imagination to dream up technology that could have jump-started the digital age nearly two hundred years ago. In fact, she writes what will become the world's first programming language. As a child, Ada is curious about everything. She is obsessed with machines and creatures that fly, even going so far as to write her own book about them called "Flyology." Along with her cat, Mistress Puff, Ada gets into all sorts of trouble. According to her mother, Ada is a bit too wild and her imagination could benefit from some discipline, so she puts Ada into a rigorous syllabus of mathematics, languages, and geography. The Rebel Girls Chapter Book series reveals third-person accounts of the life and times of the incredible woman who had persevered to accomplish incredible achievements in science, art, sports, business, politics, and more. These books are for children ages 6-9 who have just begun reading on their own for the first time. The writing tackles serious subject matter in an imaginative way that will encourage conversations with trusted adults. They include full-color illustrations and activities related to each woman's strengths.
