Praise for Shakespeare: Investigate the Bard's Influence on Today's World Amazon #1 New Release in Teen & Young Adult Anthropology Amazon #1 New Release in Teen & Young Adult Language Arts Books Praise for other books by Andi Diehn Technology: Cool Women Who Code School Library Connection "Readable and accessible to students, the books are beautifully designed with color, graphics, comic illustrations, boxes, and short paragraphs. Teachers will be thrilled with the plentiful primary sources included as QR codes that will immediately engage their classes. A treasure trove of discovery, this interactive series promises to influence the next generation of female science stars." Highly Recommended National Science Teachers Association Recommends "Written like a magazine with short reading areas followed by "Ask & Answer" essential questions, the book focuses on reading comprehension and reasoning skills while also teaching about technology then and now..." Booklist New SERIES NONFICTION SHOWCASE "The women featured in this series share more than a passion for science, technology, engineering, and math. Starting at a young age all were discouraged from pursuing paths in STEM fields. These books seek to rectify this oversight by encouraging today's girls to consider special topics in science and technology... Numerous sidebars include further background information, mini profiles of more prominent females in STEM, and thought-provoking questions. A worthwhile addition to STEM collections." Jane Margolis, Author of Unlocking the Clubhouse: Women in Computing and Stuck in the Shallow End: Education, Race, and Computing "I truly wish Technology: Cool Women Who Code had been around when my daughter was younger. It is a lively and informative introduction for young readers to the world of computing, bringing the field to life through descriptions of the field itself and stories of female leaders and their contributions." Explore Poetry! With 25 Great Projects School Library Connection "Students will have fun learning about the many different forms of poetry in this informational resource. This book leads students through creative writing projects, literary techniques, and constructing their own poetry journals and kits, keeping students actively involved while discovering the magic of poetry. Recommended" Publishers Weekly "This addition to the Explore Your World! series focuses on both reading and writing poetry, with poems and profiles of famous poets featured throughout. Over five chapters, Diehn describes poetic forms like limerick, haiku, and acrostic; explores literary techniques, such as personification and exaggeration; and finds connections between poetry, music, and math."
