Episode 32: “Tiny Creatures” edition, with Nicola Davies (video)

Posted by jnshaumeyer on June 10, 2015

Streamed live on 9 June 2015.

Nicola Davies is a prolific author of picture books for children, and non-picture books for older kids. She likes telling stories about science to younger people, and she does it very well.

We discussed her recent book, Tiny Creatures : The World of Microbes, beautifully illustrated by Emily Sutton, and used it as a jumping-off point to talk about her other books, the joy of writing about science for kids, and the sometimes mysterious process of writing itself.
