Every morning Papa combs through his daughter's waves like he does
his own -- parting it down the middle, using coconut oil to get all
the tangles out. Some days he braids her hair in two twists down
the side of her face. Other days he weaves it into one long braid
hanging down her back, just like a unicorn tail. But her favorite
style is when he combs her hair in a tight bun on the top of her
head, just like the joora he wears every day under his turban. They
call this their hair twin look!
Acadia Greene has done science in summer, autumn, and winter. In
the fourth and final book of this series, she carries her search
for answers into the spring, investigating meteors and mass

Lyme disease; and pesticides and malaria. Finally, looking back
through her notebooks, she puts together her scientific inquiries
from all four seasons into a holistic understanding of the natural
world. Acadia is curious, determined, bold, and bright-a wonderful
STEAM ambassador! Lexile 750

A melting snowman leads her-of course!-to explore climate change
and how to reduce her carbon footprint. The helium balloons at her
eleventh birthday party beg questions-naturally!-of molecular
structure, weights of gases,and neutral buoyancy. An afternoon
making paper airplanes brings discoveries in aerodynamics. Tracks
in the snow raise questions of how animals survive the winter. And
an afternoon of sledding slides right into an investigation of
momentum, acceleration, and friction. Acadia doesn't mean to do
science-it just happens. She's curious, determined, bold, and
bright-a wonderful STEAM ambassador! The Acadia Files is a fun
introduction to the wonders of science,using real-world scenarios
to make scientific inquiry relatable and understandable. Parents
and educators can use The Acadia Files to let kids discover for
themselves what it's like to be curious about the world and to
satisfy that curiosity with scientific thinking.
Acadia Greene wants answers. What happened to the frogs she used to
see at her favorite local pond? Why do leaves change color in the
fall, and why don't evergreen needles do the same? What is the
water cycle, and what is transpiration? How do time zones work, and
why does the sun set at different times in different places within
a single zone? How do germs infect us? Acadia doesn't mean to do
science, but she has questions and her parents refuse to simply
give her the answers. "Conduct an experiment," they tell her. "Use
the scientific method." So Acadia makes hypotheses, designs
experiments, analyzes data, and draws conclusions. Acadia does
science. The author, Katie Coppens writes a recurring column for
NSTA's middle school magazine Science Scope on science and literacy
called "The Integrated Classroom."
Your Baby's First Word Will Be Dada meets Everybody Poops in this
silly story about a baby girl whose first word--POOP!--isn't
getting the message across. Everyone in Sam's family wants her to
say their name for her first word. To convince her, Mama sings,
Papa tells a story, and Nana draws. Even their neighbor Mr.
Theotopolous gets in on the action by performing an epic poem. Sam
definitely has something to say, something urgent, but how can she
make her family stop thinking about themselves and listen? When all
else fails, she may have to do something drastic to make them hear
her first word--POOP!--loud and clear. This sweetly silly story is
read-aloud fun for the whole family, from parents who may end up
laughing at themselves to kids who will cheer Sam on to her
triumphant finale.

Acadia Greene wants answers. Who keeps stealing her blueberries
just as they ripen on the bushes? Why is her hair curly? Why does
the sun wake her up so early in the summer? Why does the tide

set out to do science, but she has these important questions and

method." So Acadia gathers evidence, makes hypotheses, designs

conclusions. Acadia does science. Acadia Files for autumn, winter,

writes a recurring column for NSTA's middle school magazine Science
