Dr. Brainchild & Radar: A popcorn discovery.                   Children’s picture book|Fiction  Author: Cole W. Williams Illustrations: Laura Acosta

My kids loved this exciting children’s picture book about science and I’m excited to share it with you.  I would love to hear your thoughts if you read this to a child, with a child, or gave it as a gift. (Great idea for upcoming Holidays!)

Science can be so fun and most children can agree with that at a certain point in their life but sometimes they might get an idea that science is too hard and they aren’t “good” at it.  Cole W. Williams wrote this book in a way that is fun, educational, and inspiring.  It is written and illustrated in a way that anyone can enjoy! Boy, girl, wolf, or anything in between. My children are 6 and 10, one boy one girl; they both enjoyed it, could relate to the scientist, imagine themselves as the scientist and wanted to read it again! A day time read to inspire creative projects, and a good bed time read to dream of tomorrow’s adventures. I invite you to pop some popcorn together before or after reading, or maybe before AND after if you like popcorn as much as I do. No time to pop? Grab my favorite Trader Joe’s Movie popcorn!! To the children that dream, wonder, tinker, take apart and build. Never stop. 

You can read updates about the author on her website. She believes to get a little, you must give a little, by way of supporting local authors and bookstores and building a literary community.  I think that is pretty great, we can all help each other out, believe in each other, and make our dreams as well as others come true.
