We are delighted to host New York Times bestselling author and illustrator of "Women in Science" Rachel Ignatofsky for a talk on Friday, October 17 from 4 to 5 pm at the Peabody.
Her new book "Dinosaurs: Exploring Prehistoric Life and Geological Time" is an entertaining, educational, and strikingly illustrated guide to Earth’s prehistoric eras and animals for readers of all ages (advertised for ages 10 and up). Rachel is adored by kids, teachers, and parents alike – not just for her gorgeous illustrations and informative text, but also for her ability to capture the many curiosities that readers of all ages have about the world, making each of her appearances a beautiful opportunity for learning, engaging, and expanding.
