I have a new book in the works! COOKOUT CHEMISTRY will be included in Charlesbridge’s STEAMWORKS program.
I’ve been a fan of Charlesbridge’s books for years, and I am so proud to be included in this series that teaches children about science, technology, engineering, the arts, and math through engaging stories! This will be my first book that’s translated into Spanish. And I’m grateful that amazing illustrator Tiffany Rose signed on to the project. Thanks to editor Alexandra McKenzie for selecting my manuscript and to my wonderful agent, Adria Goetz, for her guidance.
