This book is a bit short but it's still good. This is a real story about a clever woman and it happened a long time ago. Girls can do anything.

I liked some of the pictures and her childhood. And I would like to recommend it to young people who when they grow up they want to be mathematicians or scientists.

In the story Ada Lovelace’s mummy says just stick to Maths and not your imagination. She tried to do both and it worked.

This book was about a woman called Ada Lovelace who grew up to be an amazing mathematian, and the world's first computer programmer. This book was a non-fiction story of Ada's life and achievements. Yes, to people who love mathematics.

It was very interesting to learn about Ada Lovelace’s life as she created what would in the future be a base to all computer programming.

I thought this was a good depiction of her life and that the pictures were a good addition because it makes it easier for younger children to understand. I also liked the section at the end that had portraits of her during her lifetime.
