About the Series
Totally Amazing Careers in Science is a new
biography series for middle school students.
Each book features twelve engaging biographies
of living scientists with a focus on female role
models. 60% of the scientists are women.
These remarkable scientists and engineers shared
their stories and provided personal photographs.
They describe what they do, how they got into it,
and why they enjoy it.
Next to each biography there are fun activities to do related to each career (crossword
puzzles, word jumbles, things to wonder about). Each book conveys the excitement of
science and the wide variety of science careers available. It also prompts young girls (and
boys) to think about the things they like to do and the possibility of pursuing a career in
science.
