Curious McCarthy, named after the famous scientist Marie Curie, has
decided to become a scientist herself. Her first hypothesis: That her
mischievous younger brother will get noticed before her proper oldest
sister, Charlotte. Using footnotes filled with funny observations,
Curious invites readers to read her observations about her first days at
a new school with an old-fashioned teacher and her entertaining evenings
at home with her six brothers and sisters. A fun experiment brings the
science to life and a glossary and discussion and writing prompts
provide reader support.
