My Home in the Universe Entertaining, Instructional, and Comprehensive
Little Dipper in the sky, Little Dipper, please don't cry. Small you are yet still you stay, and that is how I find my way.
from "Little Dipper"
Grounded in the principle that children remember "90% of what they do in dramatic presentation," My Home in the Universe is the third book in the Brod Bagert's HeART of Science series, providing parents, teachers, and young learners with a comprehensive compendium of dramatic content literature, both entertaining and instructional.
This poignant yet comical collection of dramatic poems, monologues, and short plays creates a delightfully unique experience of the universe. Nerd-One Alvin Lofton captures the attention of young Roshanda Hale with a love poem about red giants, a super nova, and "cosmic furnaces ablaze in the boundless black of space." Ms. Mariana Moon, in an interview with talk show host Isaac Cosmos, reveals her feelings about living in the shadow of a lunar eclipse and the joy of payback when she gets to reciprocate during a solar eclipse--"little-ole me blocking out...that big ball of blazing hydrogen." Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, and Newton are likened to Fantastic Four superheroes for their brilliance and courage in bringing about the Copernican Revolution.
From cosmic dust to hydrogen fusion, to the all-consuming gravity of black holes, My Home in the Universe transforms the detachment of theoretical concepts into the immediacy of imagined personal experience--accurate, emotional, and entertaining. The journey concludes with the voice of an unnamed star who declares that "in this ocean of eternal night, I make day. I burn to give this light away and in burning earn the right to say--I am a star."

Entertaining, Instructional, and Comprehensive
My brain is like a great white shark always hunting knowledge in the dark. So shout it--CURIOSITY Yes that is how you measure me. from "My Curious Brain"
Young minds will shift into overdrive as they encounter the history, philosophy, and principles of scientific inquiry--all irresistibly packed in this poignant yet comical collection of dramatic poems, monologues, and short plays.
Calling on the time-honored principle that children remember "90% of what they do in dramatic presentation," Maybe You is the first book in the long-awaited Brod Bagert's heART of Science series, providing parents, teachers, and young learners with a comprehensive compendium of dramatic content literature, both entertaining and instructional.
In "On the Field with the Pros," Tamara experiences the thrill of conducting her own research to debunk the myth of the Egyptian crocodile bird. In "New Brain Magic,"Caroline and Javier explore the elements of critical thinking as they collaborate to concoct a magic potion "to turn normal brains into brilliant scientific wonders." And in "Real Monsters," a child discovers the revelatory power of scientific instruments when observing dust mites and maggots, through a microscope, and concludes that real monsters do indeed exist, "but they're very, very small."
The essence of curiosity, the joy of critical thinking, the power of the scientific method, the tools of science, the relationship between technology and scientific discovery, publication and peer review, the progression of scientific knowledge with each generation "standing on the shoulders of Giants," it's all here.
The collection concludes with "Knowledge in Motion," which describes the progression from Newton's revolutionary Laws of Motion to Einstein's even more revolutionary Theory of Special Relativity and drives to an empowering conclusion:
So you see how our knowledge keeps inching along. It seems perfect today, but tomorrow it's wrong. And who will be next to propose something new? First Newton, then Einstein, and next...Maybe you? from "Knowledge in Motion"

Weather or Climate? Entertaining, Instructional, and Comprehensive
Weather or climate? Climate or weather? Not quite the same but so close together. Climate or weather? Weather or climate? The difference is simply the way that you time it.
from "Whether It's Weather"
Grounded in the principle that children remember "90% of what they do in dramatic presentation," Weather or Climate? is the fourth book in the Brod Bagert's HeART of Scienceseries--a comprehensive collection of dramatic content literature.
This poignant yet comical collection of dramatic poems, monologues, and short plays stimulates powerful insights into the mechanisms of everyday weather and the realities of long-term climate.
At the outset, the Sun, too busy to appear in person, submits an affidavit in which he declares himself the BOSS--"I expand the gases of your atmosphere and make the wind. I transform water from liquid to gas as the engine of your water cycle. I drive the currents of your oceans."
There's an understandably anxious electron who narrates her journey from part of an H2O molecule in a cumulonimbus ice crystal, to part of a "swarm" of free electrons that eventually form themselves into a lightning strike.
There's a clap-along chant that visits each step of the water cycle and ends with the memory anchoring "ACCUMULATION EVAPORATION CONDENSATION PRECIPITATION H2O H2O H2O GETS NO VACATION "
With scientific accuracy and knee-slapping fun, Weather or Climate? transforms the detachment of theoretical concepts into the immediacy of imagined personal experience. The journey concludes with the voice of a person determined to accept responsibility for the future because "... planet Earth's my home. I like it here a lot. Perfect? Not at all. But it's the only home I've got."
