🔬Children’s Books by Black Authors for National STEM Day and Beyond

📚National STEM (and STEAM) Day is Monday, November 8th👩🏾‍🔬

This list of children’s books by Black authors has stories that feature real-life and fictional explorers, scientists, inventors, farmers, and much more. STEM is an acronym for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Some educational programs also incorporate the arts, hence STEAM.  The purpose of National STEM Day is to “inspire more students to take an interest in the field of STEM.” Black people are underrepresented in STEM careers, so reading about young Black characters involved in various STEM activities or biographies of amazing scientists, inventors, or astronauts, may foster more interest. 

Go HERE to see the book titles for STEM/STEAM Day!

One of the books I'm reading right now for fun! For some reason I only read this one when I'm at the water and I just realized that today.

"Although nothing in science competes with the Iliad or the Odyssey, Darwin is still up there with his contemporaries Dickens and Dumas. Really good papers may be read and cited for decades. One of the nicest compliments I have ever heard was someone saying a collegue wrote papers with "legs" - they stood the test of time, remaining interesting and relevant...what makes an idea sticky?"

-from Writing Science: How to Write Papers That Get Cited and Proposals That Get Funded

So far I have been living for my scientific literature review class. I was so worried this class would be boring but the professor is so engaging and picked really interesting exerpts for us to read like this one above.

I have always been told I am a great writer but I have a tendency to get off point, so I am excited to hone in some skills. I really want to be able to convey my ideas fluently one day.

I just ordered a bunch of books about science/biology/environment and the like to start reading and working through. The majority of them should be here tomorrow and one of them on Wednesday so that’s something to look forward to!

I figured that it’d be good not only to start reading more again after so many years, but to make it within a subject that I’m so passionate about and am currently diving into with my university studies.

If you have any cool science book recommendations, please send them my way ☺️

For it would seem—her case proved it—that we write, not with the fingers but with the whole person. The nerve which controls the pen winds itself about every fiber of our being, threads the heart, pierces the liver.” – Virginia Woolf
