	"An absolute joy to read." -Book Riot
	"Gracefully written...pleasing to the eye and ear." -Kirkus Reviews
	Rachel was a girl who loved
	science and the sea,
	books and writing
	and all the creatures of the world.
	Rachel was quiet,
	a listener by nature.
	But when she saw problems,
	she could not remain silent.
	Some people thought girls
	shouldn't be scientists.
	They thought girls
	shouldn't use their voices
	to question or challenge,
	even to protect
	all the creatures of the world.
	Luckily Rachel didn't listen
	to them. 
	Praise for Force of Nature:
	"Gracefully written in short, rhythmic lines, the text is pleasing to the eye and ear. Many pages of this beautifully presented celebration are enhanced by Blackall's tiny, hand-labeled, grayscale drawings. . . . A convincing and charming portrayal of a woman who made a difference." -Kirkus Reviews
	"Burg crafts a fictionalized telling of Carson's life, which is accompanied by delicate and realistically rendered b&w illustrations of birds, flowers, and insects by Blackall." -Publishers Weekly
	"An absolute joy to read. Burg's writing, paired with illustrations by Blackall, bring Carson to life and give the reader a glimpse into her personal side. . . . Burg captures the awe and wonder that Carson had for nature and the natural world and her desire to share that with others, especially children." -Book Riot

	Awards and Praise for All the Broken Pieces:
	ALA Best Books for Young AdultsIRA Notable Book for a Global SocietyJefferson Cup Award WinnerBooklist Editors' ChoiceALA Popular Paperback for Young Adults
	* "[A] stirring debut novel... will make readers want to rush to the end and then return to the beginning again to make connections between past, present, friends and enemies." -- Booklist, starred review
	* "Using spare free verse, first-time novelist Burg beautifully evokes the emotions of a Vietnamese adoptee as he struggles to come to terms with his past." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review
	* "The verse form carries highly charged emotions and heavy content with elegiac simplicity." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review
	"The story is a lovely, moving one." -- School Library Journal
	Awards and Praise for Serafina's Promise:
	ALA Notable Book ALA Notable Trade Book in the Field of Social Studies Américas Award, Commended Title ​​​​​Kirkus Best Book of the YearSchool Library Journal Best Books of the Year Parents' Choice Gold Award WinnerNew York Public Library 100 Books for Giving and Sharing The Herald-Sun Wilde Award for Longer Books, Middle Grade Novel Cybils Awards Finalists, Middle Grade Fiction NAACP Image Awards Outstanding Literary Work -- Youth/Teens nominee Michigan Great Lakes Great Books Award Nominee Bank Street College Children's Book Committee -- Best Children's Books of the Year  Kansas' William Allen White Award
	* "Lilting, lyrical, and full of hope." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review
	* "Powerful and uplifting." -- School Library Journal, starred review
	"The grace of the Haitian people is revealed in Burg's poetic language, the vastness of Haiti's needs apparent in the details of Serafina's world. Serafina's journey is one readers will find unsettling but, at the same time, rich with examples of true courage and dignity." -- Karen Hesse, author of the Newbery Medal winner Out of the Dust and Safekeeping
	"Serafina is certainly a resilient and admirable character who will touch the hearts of many... Through this story, Ann extends the reputation she established with All the Broken Piec
