About this title

About the Author:

Jennifer Shand lives in Franklin, Tennessee, with her husband, Ryan. While growing up in the Shenandoah Valley of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia, Jennifer voraciously read fantasy and adventure stories, and had fun taking adventures of her own. Jennifer enjoys reading, going for walks, hikes, bike rides, and traveling, but most of all she loves to write, especially stories that help make learning fun.

T. G. Tjornehoj illustrated the Why Do? series. He is local to Nashville and works primarily in watercolors.

Review:

Amusing, stylish illustrations with a touch of whimsy add to the board book lesson to make it fun for all. --Midwest Book Review

This board book introduces kids to simple engineering concepts, like cell-phone towers, light bulb filaments, and microwaves to encourage the fulfillment of scientific curiosities. The illustrations are inviting rather than diagrammatical, so it's entertaining and not intimidating. --Aimee Jodoin
