Get to Work with Science and Technology
is a fascinating new narrative nonfiction series that introduces readers to the real-world applications of STEM subjects.

From analyzing data, to using tools and technology, readers will be excited to see how real-life scientists and engineers solve problems every day using the same scientific techniques that students study and use in the classroom.

"Gr 3-6–Firsthand accounts from professionals in the field, dramatic situations that require problem-solving, and fascinating facts are at the heart of this engrossing series. These high-interest occupations will appeal to a wide audience, especially those students interested in pursuing a STEM-related career. Real-life scientists who use technology, analysis, and critical thinking to solve problems demonstrate on a larger scale the same techniques that students are learning in the classroom. Interesting details abound, and kids will be eager to learn more strange but true tidbits. (How do vets trim an elephant’s toenails? With saws and power sanders, of course.) Striking photos are complemented by geometric sidebars, and the white-print-on-black-background is fresh and sharp."

"Do you like to play video games? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to design a video game and then have others play it successfully? Being a video game designer takes on new meaning as the book connects the job and adventures offered here through the use of real time photos and the most current science information available.
