Sixteen scientists. Protecting our planet. Making science more equitable. An Orbis Pictus Recommended Book
A Green Earth Book Award Honor
A Blueberry Award Honor Scientists who collect microbes from surfers' skin, who use radar sensors to gather data miles away, who combat inequality by pushing for cleaner air policies. Each with their own story, all working to make life better for future generations. Celebrated author Dana Alison Levy profiles 16 people, all studying different elements of the earth's landscape, animals, and climate, who defy stereotypes of who can be a scientist. From analytical chemists to volcanologists, from global experts to recent graduates, these scientists share what they were like as young people, how they got where they are now, and what they--and the rest of us--can do to help the planet. Based on extensive interviews and featuring infographics and personal photos, Breaking the Mold offers a snapshot of the people and organizations fighting to make science more equitable. Back matter includes advice for readers interested in science careers, DIY projects, paths to community involvement, and more. Books for a Better Earth are designed to inspire children to become active, knowledgeable participants in caring for the planet they live on. A Chicago Public Library 'Best of the Best' Book
A School Library Journal Best Book of the Year
