Good Book: It's a Snap!

by Monica Kulling, illustrated by Bill Slavin

In 1877 in Rochester, New York, George Eastman couldn’t understand why picture-taking was so difficult. George realized that not many people could own a camera — they were too expensive and the size of today’s microwave ovens! But how could he make picture-taking easier? Find out in this biography of George Eastman, inventor and founder of Kodak. SLJ reviewed for grades 1-4.
