Summary

The Girl Who Could Talk to Computers is the first book in The Girls Who Could Series. It tells the story of young Grace Hopper, the inquiring girl who wrote the first computer compiler program which gave birth to the first computer language, COBOL. After amazing Grace helped bring us into the modern computer-age, she dedicated her life to teaching and inspiring young people to dream big.

The Girls Who Could is a fun series of true stories about women who have made a difference in the world through inspired action. By giving young girls examples of people who are doing big, amazing things, children grow up with a template of achievement upon which to grow and expand their own dreams and goals.
