Tess Booker & Garret Rhea

Authors Corner: Living Library w/ Tess Booker

In this episode of Authors Corner, host Tess Booker sits down with educator and author Garret Rhea, president of Ninja Science Academy, to explore the intersection of science, storytelling, and emotional awareness.

Garrett shares how his passion for teaching science to children is rooted in helping them experience awe, curiosity, and connection — not just memorize facts. Drawing from over 15 years in elementary education, he explains how hands-on learning, storytelling, and family engagement can transform the way children understand the universe and themselves.

The conversation centers around Garrett’s children’s book, The Story of Circle and Square, a gentle yet powerful story about two shapes who grow apart because of their differences — only to rediscover their shared essence at a deeper level. Together, Tess and Garrett explore how science, intuition, and emotional intelligence can work together to foster holistic learning and meaningful connection in both classrooms and families.
