What Color Is My World?

This book shares the stories of several African-American inventors, most of whom haven't been given a lot of wide recognition, told in a surrounding fictional story of a brother and sister who are moving into a new house. As they work with a neighbor to fix and clean the house, the neighbor connects what they are doing with stories of inventors. For example, turning on a lightbulb leads to a conversation about inventors who worked with electricity. I really enjoyed this structure and learning about these inventors. The children's story was a little contrived at times, but overall, it worked well.
