| Publisher Description: Ten-year-old Curious McCarthy's real name is Curie, after the famous scientist Marie Curie. So it's no surprise that Curious has decided to become a scientist. As she studies the world around her, Curious records her observations and uses footnotes, just like a real scientist. Best of all, Curious's footnotes provide more giggles than clarity. As one of seven kids, with an English teacher mom and an engineer Dad, Curious knows that her family members are the perfect research subjects. Discover the crazy adventures of the McCarthy family as revealed by a fourth-grade scientist |
Contributor Bio(s): Christie, Tory: - Tory Christie is a real scientist by day and secretly writes children's books at night. When it is light outside, she studies rocks and water. After dark, she writes silly science stories that kids and grownups can laugh about. Check out her latest series, Curious McCarthy, and explore science with Curious and her zany family. Tory Christie grew up in a large family, but her family was nothing like the McCarthys -- honestly. The McCarthys are completely fiction -- really. Tory Christie lives in Fargo, North Dakota with her medium-sized family. Find out more at: www.torychristie.com.Price, Mina: - Mina Price is an American illustrator and designer. She has a particular affinity for book illustration and character design, or basically any project that allows her to draw interesting people in cool outfits. Mina graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art with a BFA in Illustration. She enjoys finding ways to seamlessly marry traditional and digital art, going from scanner to Photoshop to printer to paint and back again. When she is not drawing, Mina can frequently be found baking things with lots of sugar or getting way too emotional over a good book. |
