Asha and Baz Meet Mary Sherman Morgan

Asha and Baz Meet Mary Sherman Morgan

Asha and Baz are struggling to figure out how to launch their paper rocket at school but after finding a stick in the schoolyard that turns out to be a magic wand, they are transported to the year 1957 where they meet Mary Sherman Morgan as she worked through her own problem solving process, with her own launch, finding the just right mixture of chemicals. Mary had learned not to give up as she became the only female working as a theoretical performance specialist at North American Aviation alongside 900 men. Asha and Baz learn not to give up too and end up finding their own solution to bring back to the present just in time for the school's assembly with a real astronaut: Chris Hadfield. Asha and Baz's next adventure with Hedy Lamar is previewed in the back of the book - I can't wait to see who else they visit in the future...or the past.
