So what does a curious child do? Ada decides she needs to try to invent a way to fly. She studies birds and bugs to find out how they do it, and then wrote it all down in a book of her own. Fly along with Ada on a journey of the imagination where dreams and curiosity can take you to the furthest reaches of the world all while never leaving your own yard. This story is based on real events in Ada Lovelace's life. An adventure that helped make her one of the most inspiring symbols for girls in science. |
