Hi STEM Sparkers! Remember last year when we talked about 10 STEM picture books for Women's History Month? Well, there's been a bunch of new picture books released in the past year featuring Women in STEM, and I think there's no better way to celebrate Women's History Month than by checking these books out!
1) Counting the Stars: The Story of Katherine Johnson, NASA Mathematician
2) Queen of Physics: How Wu Chien Shiung Helped Unlock the Secrets of the Atom (People Who Shaped Our World)
3) Wood, Wire, Wings: Emma Lilian Todd Invents an Airplane
4) What Miss Mitchell Saw
5) Ocean Speaks: How Marie Tharp Revealed the Ocean's Biggest Secret
6) Numbers in Motion: Sophie Kowalevski, Queen of Mathematics
7) Evelyn the Adventurous Entomologist:The True Story of a World-Traveling Bug Hunter
8) Patricia's Vision: The Doctor Who Saved Sight (People Who Shaped Our World)
I'm sure we're missing some really great books on this list, so please let us know in the comments below what books we might be missing! And I just have to say how beautiful all the covers are-- I highly, highly encourage STEM Sparkers to get these books at their local library or bookstore or even Amazon/Target/Walmart. These picture books are excellent reads for Women's History Month (or any month)!
We're going to help one lucky STEM Sparker with a head start-- we're raffling off one $10 Amazon e-gift card! Use the Rafflecopter below (or click here) and any resident of Earth can enter as long as they have an Amazon US account. Good luck and happy STEM-ing!
What Miss Mitchell Saw.
My granddaughter would like Evelyn The Adventurous Entomologist.
Queen of Physics and What Miss Mitchell Saw are on my "must read" list!
