A young boy with a bright mind and an even brighter dream, his story is a testament to the wonderful resilience of the human spirit.

“Prepare to be inspired and uplifted! This is a captivating children’s book that shines a spotlight on the incredible achievements of four trailblazing women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Through enchanting rhymes and beautiful illustrations, young readers are introduced to the brilliance of Marie Curie, Dr. Muthulakshmi Reddy, Wang Zhenyi, and Mary Seacole. Each page radiates with the message that children are capable of greatness and possess the power to change the world.”

“I admit I teared up a bit reading this. Very cute, with a diverse selection of women in STEM, displayed with cute poetry and vocabulary lists! And the end of the book includes interactive bits for the kids – coloring pages and paper crafts. My niece is the perfect age for this; it’ll not just expand her vocabulary but her view of the world as well.
Absolutely adorable and the art is beautiful!”
Tabitha – Netgalley Reviewer

It covered very diverse people with different backgrounds and different time frames. I think this is a great book to set off a spark of fascination for science.”
