The Reading Public Schools October Book of the Month is “Nano: The Spectacular Science of the Very (Very) Small.” This title is written by a ROCKSTAR female scientist Dr. Jess Wade, 1st time children’s author and equity in science advocate! With this title she has made the ideas about nanotechnology accessible and exciting. Dr. Wade and Illustrator Melissa Castrillรณn created a beautifully engaging picture book that explores nanomaterials… the “very (very) small”! While presented in an approachable way for younger readers, it includes rich and complex ideas, terms, and scientific themes for older readers as well.
A copy of this book has been purchased and shared with each of our elementary, RISE, and middle schools along with a teacher guide supporting this text. Attached below is our Community Sharing Sheet for “Nano” so you can get in on the fun at home too!
