Alan Turing and the Power of Curiosity (My Super… von Karla Valenti
This book is very weird. It's both a biography of Alan Turning, while at the same time there are monsters that are trying to defeat Turning. The entire point of the book is completely lost. There's more time spent on the monsters trying to defeat Turning that on telling the reader about the man and his history. This was a wasted read. I like the illustrations but nothing else.
Who doesn't love a book about a strong female character? Especially a girl like me who grew up needing some strong female influences!
Marie Curie and the Power of Persistence is a wonderful, little book that is a must read for children.
To begin with, there is a super, evil villain who has decided the best way to ruin the world is to stop the spread of knowledge! This monster is big, mean and scary and seems to be content with his super devious plan. In walks Marie Curie, a woman who will turn into a superhero scientist through her amazing intelligence and experiments! Our evil villain wants Marie Curie stopped before she can get too smart and stop his wicked plans. Along the way, we will learn how Marie Curie is full of persistence in many different ways!
This little book is a wonderful mix of fiction and non-fiction. There's lots of learning opportunities about this super scientist scattered among the pages. Definitions, facts and timelines about Marie Curie and information about the things she studied and created are all available to see. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good STEM book for their kids, especially since it's about Marie Curie. She was a legend!
Also: references... in a children's book... I LOVE IT.
On a side note, I thought the pictures were lovely and very unique. I haven't seen this style a lot in children's books, so I was impressed. It was colourful, fun and had lots of awesome details.
I am so thankful for this book. It is absolutely amazing and I wish I would have had books like this in my youth. Hopefully many kids are able to pick this book up or many educators get their hands on it! Seriously, we need more books like this - educational and fun!
Five out of five stars!

Alan Turing and the Power of Curiosity is a great way to learn about an incredible science hero!
This series is goofy but loads of fun! Evil monsters read about the famous heroes of science at the beginning, which always makes me chuckle and smile. It's a unique way to tell this story and I really like it! Alan Turing is going to do something that makes these monsters mad: create something amazing and innovate in a way the world has never seen before! Watching the monsters jump in and try to sabotage Alan but only help him is a fun way to learn about history. I truly think this series is a fun way to introduce some really important and incredible people to younger readers.
Three out of five stars.
