The man who invented the lawnmower

Written by Christopher Davis Jr

Illustrated by Sri Sayekti

The Man who invented the Lawnmover is such an inspirational little book!

Imagine living without air conditioning in the summer or a radiator in the winter, or even worse; life without potato chips! Christopher Davis Jr reminds us that many of these fabulous inventions had wonderful inventors; and they were all African-Americans! I actually took the time to read up on these gentlemen after reading Davis’ book, and I have to say, I stand in awe of what they had accomplished! Every child, young or old, would too!

The illustrations in this book are bright and colorful, and the information is well-explained and to the point. Davis’ book should be a part of anyone’s discerning library!
