Along the way, readers will find words of wisdom from both fictional characters such as Boo Nanny in Crow, who advises, “Don’t crow till you get out de woods.

Readers will be inspired as they learn of people who have faced complex challenges and struggled to triumph over great adversity. Or, they might wish to ponder a scientific conundrum as they dig into A Black Hole Is Not a Hole. Indeed, readers can be assured that there’s no shortage of creativity in the world of storytelling.
