Energy Superheroes- Who are they?
Bios: Erin Twamley and Joshua Sneideman are friends, parents of daughters, educators and authors of STEM publications from blogs to children's books. After completing their first series with Nomad Press for middle school students (see Climate Change and Renewable Energy), Erin and Josh have created a new series for upper elementary students with WiseInk -- STEM Superheroes.™ This series features the stories, careers and superpowers of 26 diverse women in an A to Z format. Everyday Superheroes: Women in Energy the 2nd book will be available in Winter 2022.
Abstract: If she can see it, she can be it! There are so many awesome efforts from social media campaigns to databases of exceptional women aiming to empower girls in STEM. BUT we are missing a focus on energy! We have so many energy superheroes, women who are powering our planet with renewable energy. We need to share their stories, careers and superpowers with kids, especially girls. We would love your insight to help us highlight these women and careers for a new multicultural children's book Everyday Superheroes: Women in Energy (WiseInk, 2022). This is the 2nd book in the award winning STEM Superheroes™ series. We need your help to share how energy careers are changing lives and our planet. We will share with you about the book and how to get involved in our movement of sharing superheroes with elementary-aged kids.
- Be an Energy Ambassador -- tell us how you want to be involved.
- Nominate women energy superheroes you know (or yourself) to feature in the book. We're looking for a very diverse group of women and energy careers.
- Contribute to the Kickstarter to help us turn the manuscript into a book
