It helps make science (and scientists in general) relatable to readers who may otherwise feel that these areas of study and interest are out of their reach.

(Also, I LOVE Yevgenia’s the artwork so much!)

I would be excited to share with my granddaughter. It is amazing how many women pursued their dreams in the sciences despite the obstacles placed before them. We just don’t know their stories like we should. I shared at https://twitter.com/BraniganDebra/status/1247149925835649030?s=20. Best wishes to the author on the new release.
