Anna, Kid Engineer by Shenek Alston

Read with Carylee brings the love of literature to children and gives a peek behind-the-scenes by evoking the joy of reading, helping children interact with authors, and displaying the hidden talent of these authors who may be living in your community. In this episode, we're going to read Anna, Kid Engineer, written by Shenek Alston. She's a homeschooling mom with a PhD in Statistics.

It was once again time for the annual Science Fair at East Creek Elementary School. Anna wasn't excited about the upcoming event because of the embarrassing projects she'd come up with during her 3rd and 4th-grade years.  This was her last year of elementary school, and she wanted this year to be different. Anna loved to tinker and make new things out of old toys she found at yard sales, but what did her tinkering have to do with a science fair project? Read more to find out if her 5th-grade science fair project turned out to be amazing, a flop, or somewhere in between!
