Libby
loves science! In this STEM-themed Level 3 I Can Read! title, Libby and her friend

Libby loves science—and
experimenting! In this Level 3 I Can Read! title, Libby hosts a puppy party for
her friends and their dogs. With the help of her friend Rosa and little
brother, Libby decorates, stuffs goody bags and bakes delicious cupcakes. But when
they realize they’ve forgotten an important ingredient, they use science to
solve the problem—just in the nick of time.

The Loves Science books introduce
readers to girls who love science, as well as basic concepts of science,
technology, engineering, and math. This Level 3 I Can Read! focuses on basic
chemistry and friendship. A great pick for newly independent readers and an
ideal companion to Cece Loves Science: Push and Pull.

Kimberly Derting is the author of the Cece Loves Science series, the Body Finder series, the Pledge trilogy, and the Taking series. She lives in the Pacific Northwest, where the gloomy weather is ideal for writing anything dark and creepy. Her three beautiful (and often mouthy) children serve as an endless source of inspiration and frequently find things they say buried in the pages of their mother’s books. You can visit her online at www.kimberlyderting.com.

Shelli R. Johannes is coauthor of nine books in the Loves Science series (co/Kimberly Derting), Theo Thesaurus series, Shine Like a Unicorn, and Penny: An Engineering Tale of the Fourth Pig (Capstone, Fall 2022).

She is also the critically-acclaimed author of teen novels (written as SR Johannes) including the Nature of Grace series (Untraceable, Uncontrollable, and Unstoppable), Rewired, and On the Bright Side.

She can often be found on highways and country roads saving strays and other jaywalking critters, or volunteering with animal conservation groups like the Atlanta Zoo, the Dolphin Project, and Bosley’s puppy orphanage. After earning a master’s in marketing and working as an executive in Corporate America, Shelli traded out her heels and suits for flip-flops and jeans so she could follow her passion of writing.

She lives in Atlanta with her pack of animals: a British husband, two kids, one bird, one fish, and two crazy Goldendoodles who hate vegetables.
