    This story is one that you will be happy to read over and over when your child asks you to again and again Mercurio s charming, lyrical text partnered with Corace s stunning art, make this STEM themed story about Nanda and her growing world one you won t want to miss.

    I wanted this book to be about a real person, with back matter to point out all the small moments of curiosity about nature, math, and engineering led to a career in space travel.Even without that back matter, this wil...
