For everyone who cares about our fragile planet. "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 Praise for Flooded: Requiem for Johnstown: * "Stunning, significant and sorrowful, Ann E. Burg's requiem melts history into prose...

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...
