Meet Charles S. Parker, an unsung yet trailblazing Black scientist who made major contributions to the fields of botany (the study of plants) and mycology (the study of fungi) in this inspiring STEM/STEAM picture book biography from the creators of Buzzing with Questions.

In 1882, Black botanist and mycologist Charles S. Parker sprouted up in the lush, green Pacific Northwest. From the beginning, Charles’s passion was plants, and he trudged through forests, climbed mountains, and waded into lakes to find them. When he was drafted to fight in World War I, Charles experienced prejudice against Black soldiers and witnessed the massive ecological devastation that war caused. Those experiences made him even more determined to follow his dreams, whatever the difficulties, and to have a career making things grow, not destroying them.

As a botanist and teacher, Charles traveled the United States, searching for new species of plants and fungi. After discovering the source of the disease killing peach and apricot trees, Charles was offered a job at Howard University, the famed historically Black college where he taught the next generation of Black scientists—men and women—to love plants and fungi as much as he did.

Cut tight, good quality and price.
Color: Sky Blue, Size: Medium
Well made, the material is soft, and comfortable. It’s tight without being clingy. It didn’t shrink when I dried it on medium. The color is as shown and its not see through but is cut tight. So if you have a little extra weight in your stomach area it will not be flattering. Great price and good quality. I’m 5’6, 138lbs, and wear a 36C. I bought a size medium.

Comfortable women’s top, excellent for nursing!
Color: Black, Size: Large
I needed a new breastfeeding friendly tank top as I am postpartum and gained some weight. This is so comfortable and easily accessible for feeds. I wear it around the house and to sleep in. At a fraction of the cost of the more expensive brands nursing tops, this is a great practical, comfortable buy. The material is thick but breathable and not restrictive and non see through. Sizing is spot on. I am 5’4 and 160 lbs and I bought a Large. Overall this is a durable piece that is a staple in my postpartum wardrobe.

Great top for summer!
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
I bought one of these. The v-neck and fit of the tank top is amazing! Flattering! I loved it so much I ordered two more. Great summer tank! Washes and dries fabulously as well. I am 5’4” 150lbs, wear a medium or size 8-10. I purchased a large and love the look. It fits well, not too tight but hugs the body. Not oversized.

True to size & color, modest cut, fitted style
Color: Purple, Size: Small
The cut on these tops are perfect. It's a nice v-neck without being revealing. Thick straps and solid back so your bra doesn't show. Sizing is accurate in my case. 5'6" 130lbs chest 34" waist 26" hips 39" and I ordered the small which is fitted on me. I ordered the lavender purple and a black one and both colors are correct in shade. Soft and stretchy material. I air dry them mostly and only gentle low on the dryer if needed and have not had any shrinking.
