Grace Hopper Computer Pioneer by Joanne Mattern

Grace Hopper Computer Pioneer by Joanne Mattern is a great biography for elementary students. It presents the information about the how Grace Hopper joined the Navy and worked with computers. A fun fact is that a moth had gotten into the computer she was using and stopped the computer from working. She ‘debugged’ the computer and started the term, we use still today, “debug”. She literally had to debug her computer to get it to work again. Grace Hopper Computer Pioneer is a great addition to any library.
