Introduce kids ages 8 to 12 to a real woman in a ridiculously fun STEM career that could change their future while inspiring curiosity and confidence in Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Part true-story biography, part STEM activity book, ANGELLA, BEAUTY CHEMIST celebrates the story of Angella, a real woman in science who gets to perform experiments in a chemistry lab every day-it's her job! Angella believes that science is for everyone, and you don't have to change who you are to fit in. ANGELLA, BEAUTY CHEMIST includes: FEMALE ROLE MODEL: In short chapters and a fun narrative, young readers learn how Angella grew from a curious kid into a real-life chemist. FUN FACTS: ​​​​​​​Readers are introduced to chemistry basics like how Angella uses chemical elements, molecules, acids, and bases to create science experiments and formulas for beauty products like shampoo, bubble bath, bath bombs, and more! STEAM ACTIVITIES: Kids complete hands-on STEAM activities like how to mix their very own face mask, lip scrub, foot scrub, and more. Why do female career role models in STEM matter? Women make up just 27% of the STEM workforce. STEM careers have higher salaries and higher rates of employment while tackling some of the world's most pressing issues, which are currently lacking a female perspective. Welcome all kids into the world of STEM with The Look Up Series. Celebrate female role models by sharing extraordinary women's stories and career paths with a side of some serious girl power. These real-life stories feature not famous women, but real women who can become your kid's childhood heroes. Let's get to work with The Look Up Series!
