Wonder women of science : twelve geniuses who are currently rocking science, technology, and the world. / Tiera Fletcher and Ginger Rue ; illustrated by Sally Wern Comport.
The twelve scientists who are profiled here are women from all sorts of backgrounds who are currently rocking science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Each of them has a different story to tell about how she got to where she is today, but the one thing they have in common is that they are truly wonder women of science. Around the world there are many more women doing incredible work and breaking new ground in STEM fields--not to mention girls of all ages dreaming of how they will one day contribute.
