(4) K-3 National Geographic Readers series. This biography for emerging readers provides a chronological account of Carver's life, from his birth into slavery to his contributions to agriculture, science, and education. The narrative cursorily touches on obstacles faced by African Americans at the turn of the last century. "In His Own Words" boxes spotlight quotes from Carver himself. Captioned photos and illustrations help break up the serviceable text.
