Offers an illustrated telling of the story of Ada Byron Lovelace, from her early creative fascination with mathematics and science and her devastating bout with measles, to the ground-breaking algorithm she wrote for Charles Babbage's analytical engine.
Definitely reads more like a historical overview than a story. I get the impression this is one of those books that adults are more likely to geek out over (woman in STEM!) than children are. Nice introduction to a historical figure though, with gorgeous illustrations.
