She lives in the Pacific Northwest, where the gloomy weather is ideal for writing anything dark and creepy.

        She can often be found on highways and country roads saving strays and other jaywalking critters, or volunteering with animal conservation groups like the Atlanta Zoo, the Dolphin Project, and Bosley's puppy orphanage. After earning a master's in marketing and working as an executive in Corporate America, Shelli traded out her heels and suits for flip-flops and jeans so she could follow her passion of writing.

        She lives in Atlanta with her pack of animals: a British husband, two kids, one bird, one fish, and two crazy Goldendoodles who hate vegetables.

        April 1, 2020
        Science lover Libby works with classmates to run the science booth at the school festival in this companion to Derting and Johannes' Cece books, illustrated by Vashti Harrison. Libby is a black girl who loves experimenting, especially in the kitchen. At school, chemistry is right up her alley. When Mr. Darwin recruits students to run the science booth at the school fair, Libby works with Rosa and Finn to devise experiments that will be exciting enough to compete with the bouncy house. On the day of the festival, they decorate their booth artfully and set up their giant bubbles, slime ingredients, and rocketry supplies, but for a while they are overlooked. The trio manages to attract attention to their experiments, and soon they have a small crowd. Their booth doesn't win the prize, but their class celebrates anyway with a fun and tasty chemistry experiment. Instructions for all of the science activities are included as notebook-page insets within the story spreads. The diverse characters (Rosa is brown skinned with puffy, red hair, and Finn looks Asian) are accessible and fun. Murray's bright, cartoon illustrations, patterned after Harrison's aesthetic, generate excitement around their adventures. While the one-note story falls a bit flat at the end, science lovers will be happy to continue collecting these titles, and the incorporation of well-loved activities like cooking and making slime just may convert science skeptics into science lovers too. Sure to inspire real-life experimentation. (science facts) (Picture book. 5-9)

        Grades 1-3 Joining the ranks of strong girls in STEM comes Libby, a spirited Black girl with a passion for chemistry. When her teacher announces their class will be running the science booth at the school fair?and that the most successful booth will win an ice cream party?Libby can't wait to get involved. She and two other classmates volunteer and come up with three fun experiments for people to try at the booth: making giant bubbles, mixing fluffy slime, and launching a baking-soda-and-vinegar bottle rocket. Brightly colored artwork bubbles with Libby's enthusiasm, even when things at the booth don't quite go as planned. Materials lists and instructions for each experiment, plus two others, appear in the main text, giving readers an opportunity to experience the science fun themselves. While the kids have supervision and safety goggles on in the illustrations, there's no mention of these precautions in the instructions themselves. Nevertheless, this book is a natural fit for classroom science units and home use?just be prepared for a fun but messy learning experience.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2020, American Library Association.)

        K-Gr 3-Libby loves performing science experiments and exploring the world around her. When she learns that there will be a science booth at an upcoming school fall festival, she and her friends decide to participate. What follows is all but a procedural for giving children a path into hands-on learning. Included are instructions for a series of accessible science experiments with simple drawings making them approachable for young children. Also helpful are material lists and notes about what can be expected once the experiment is performed. These appear in the corner of pages and can be adequately distinguished from the narrative text. The wonderfully diverse array of characters sport jubilant expressions as they search for, plan out, and try different experiments, from researching and working with ingredients to observing their results. VERDICT A successful marriage of solid information and good fun, this book expresses a love for the topic that will encourage kids to follow their curiosity and develop their own appreciation for science.-Deanna Smith, Pender County P.L., NC
