(4) K-3 Carolrhoda On My Own Books series. Illustrated by Lance Paladino. An accessible narrative introduces this important historical figure to independent readers. The text, which describes Carver's life as a slave in the mid-1860s, his education, and his pioneering work as an agricultural scientist, ends a bit abruptly. The paintings that accompany the text are somewhat stiff but warm. A brief afterword and a time line are included.
