Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "Through fictionalized narration, energetic characters, and fun cartoon illustrations, the If You Were a Kid series gives young readers insight into different areas of life, most of which have a STEM focus. A brief introduction precedes each story, which stars a boy and girl character and provides readers with plenty of factual tidbits. Docking at the International Space Station follows two siblings whose cousin is an astronaut; through video chat, they explore the space station with her and learn what's required to become an astronaut. Each story comes packed with quick-fact sidebars, complete with photographs and charts, and volumes end with handy, easy-to-follow maps, time lines, and glossaries. A fun, absorbing first step into nonfiction.--Reagan, Maggie Copyright 2017 Booklist"
