Hey there word nerds!
Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Ruth Spiro on the show!
Ruth\\u2019s journey as a writer is one I think many word nerds can relate to. She never imagined she\\u2019d be a writer\\u2026until she started doing it! And now she writes innovative books for kids about science, technology, engineering and math\\u2026or STEM as is the buzzword right now.
Her debut picture book, Lester Fizz, Bubble-Gum Artist won awards from Writer\\u2019s Digest, Willamette Writers, and was a Bank Street College of Education Best Book. Ruth followed up this success with her awesome Baby Loves Science board book series.
This groundbreaking series includes books on a number of different topics including: coding, green energy, quarks, and my personal favorite quantum physics, which explains the Schrodinger\\u2019s cat thought experiment in language that a toddler can understand.
This amazing series has been featured in The Los Angeles Times, Popular Science and Working Mother. And the series features iconic and adorable illustrations by Irene Chan. When an illustrator can make Quarks look cute\\u2026OMG!
So listen in as Ruth and I geek out over this awesome series, and give you an inside look into the exciting niche of board books.
