@ Amazon | Bookshop

Booktalk: Learning which thoughts lead to good outcomes is powerful, but it starts by learning that we get to choose those thoughts. Feeling grateful is like preventative medicine. It can improve the way we feel in our heart, our head, and our body. It can also change the way the world around us feels. We can choose to embrace feeling grateful with Bubble Thinking or we can choose to ignore it with Slug Thinking.

In this choose-your-own-adventure-style book, readers are asked to help four kids just like them decide what to do in everyday situations. Which mindset will they choose, Bubble Thinking or Slug Thinking?

Up Periscope!: How Engineer Raye Montague Revolutionized Shipbuilding
by Jennifer Swanson (Author) and Veronica Miller Jamison (Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop

Booktalk: Girls like Raye Montague weren’t supposed to like math or science, or go to engineering school. But tenacious Raye had a plan, one that eventually took her all the way to the US Navy. There, she was assigned an impossible task: to come up with a single computer program that could design every part of a ship. It had never been done before—but Raye’s groundbreaking program revolutionized the way ships and submarines were built, and set her on a path to become a pioneering figure in naval engineering and the navy’s first female program manager of ships.
