ALT Another @sljournal list for Asha and Baz Meet Katia Krafft 6 STEM titles for new readers | Transitional Spotlight "Clear and simple information, as well as illustrations, help young readers learn the facts and science along with the titular duo. Rich descriptions tell what volcanoes look like and bring the story to life. Those new to the series will still be able to follow the plot, as a brief summary is provided at the beginning about where the magic stick came from, and where Asha and Baz have traveled before. Patel’s gray-scale, cartoonlike illustrations follow the young adventurers through the story. Back matter includes volcano facts, discussion points, and how to do your own Great Volcano Challenge." "A charming STEM chapter book introducing young readers to inspiring real-life science, scientists, and history. Highly recommended—and if you don’t have the series yet, purchase the ­collection.–Heidi Dechief" https://www.slj.com/story/6-stem-titles-for-new-readers-transitional-
