The Atomic Bomb
Now, from time to time you might hear the term "nuclear bomb" used, while other times you may hear the term "atomic bomb". What is the difference? Any bomb that uses tiny reactions inside the nucleus of a microscopic atom is, by definition, a "nuclear bomb". However, the first nuclear bombs were much simpler than today's bombs, which use multiple steps to produce their large explosions. The first nuclear bombs that were produced relied only on this special microscopic reaction in the atom and so are called "atomic bombs"; and it is this kind that we will be talking about. Find out about this exciting and complex period of time in this kid's book.

Junko's Climb
Spring 1975. Fourteen climbers from the Ladies Climbing Club in Japan begin their climb up Mount Everest. Junko Tabei, a mountain climbing pioneer--the woman who formed the group --faces many hardships as she leads them: frigid temperatures, gusting winds, an avalanche, injuries, altitude sickness, and a death-defying ice ridge crossing. Yet she perseveres, and when she reaches the summit of Mount Everest, she becomes the first woman--and the 36th person--to do so! While Junko made history with her trailblazing climb, her path was far from easy. She was small in stature, and often sick as a child. Most climbing clubs of her time were only for men who put up countless obstacles to keep Junko from climbing. But she didn't let her gender, size, or traditional societal norms stop her. Junko trained hard, formed her own climbing club for women, and became passionate about preserving mountains and wild spaces. Junko's story shows that determination triumphs over every obstacle, and her climb goes beyond her historical accomplishment--as of June 2020, she has inspired 630 females to follow in her footsteps.

The True Ugly Duckling
Picture book biography of one of the most iconic storytellers of all time, Hans Christian Andersen, illustrated by papercut artist Calvin Nicholls He brought to life stories and characters that millions have loved: A one-legged tin soldier who yearned for love. A poor little match girl. A mermaid who gave up her voice for a prince. But who was Hans Christian Andersen? He was a "strange child." An ugly duckling. Even his mother said so. He didn't seem to think like, or look like, anyone around him. But while his tender heart was bruised by ridicule, it responded by driving an unstoppable urge to create, to entertain. If he couldn't act he would dance, if he couldn't dance he would sing, and if he couldn't sing ... well, maybe he had stories to tell. With each rejection and defeat, Hans would soothe himself by making art with scissors and whatever was handy. A bit of cloth, a piece of paper. Until one day... Structured like a fairy tale, this is the story of how Hans Christian Andersen took all the parts of his life--whether painful or transcendent--and used them to create books that have touched children the world over. This is the first picture book biography of Andersen to be told through a lens that takes into account what scholars now know of his neurodiversity. Anderson, for instance, often told stories while keeping his hands busy by making paper-cut art. In this spirit, the remarkable illustrations by Calvin Nicholls are all created as paper-cut soft sculptures. A fresh, and uniquely beautiful look at one of the world's greatest storytellers.
