What They Are Saying

“Pattison’s text begs to be read aloud and Joven’s
spreads offer dynamic visuals…”
Kirkus Reviews

“…appealing text…Highly recommended … an excellent tool for teachers or librarians to read
before assigning STEM projects.”
School Library Journal

This book is a beautiful marriage of poetic verse and diverse illustrations, of STEM challenges and pure fun, and of learning how to cope with failure and transform it to success. I’d recommend it for parents, teachers, and every kid who likes to read, bake or decorate!
