Dinnertime! Your ears ring with the sound of your mom calling your name. You race into the dining room and see the bright-green salad and deep-red spaghetti sauce. You grab your chair to sit down and feel the smooth, soft fabric. Your nose catches a whiff of spaghetti and, as you dig in, your taste buds zing with the tang of garlic. Wow! You've got extraordinary sensory perception! Get insight into your senses and find out about color-blindness, super-tasters, scent memories, touch sensors and more.

About the author
Trudee Romanek
20 books11 followersAs a kid, Trudee Romanek enjoyed reading, singing, and playing, pretending the porch railing was a horse she could ride and putting on puppet shows. She used to daydream about becoming a veterinarian or a singer, but never a writer. The only children's writers she knew about lived in England.
Her love on books took her to university for English and drama sand into the field of editing, first textbooks and then trade children's books. As the editor of Books from OWL, she learned lots working with talented non-fiction writers such as Jay Ingram, Kathy Ferris, Elizabeth MacLeod, and Sylvia Funston. Once Trudee had a family, she worked from home as a freelance editor of non-fiction and picture books and began to write small projects for magazines and educational publishers. Each project bolstered Trudee’s interest in writing and her confidence in her own abilities until, gradually, writing became her primary focus.
Trudee’s books have been nominated for many awards, including The Science in Society Children’s Book Award, Silver Birch Award, Hackmatack Children’s Choice Book Award, and Red Cedar Information Book Award, which she won in 2006/2007 for her book Aha! The Most Interesting Book You'll Ever Read About Intelligence.
She has dabbled in writing plays and even a musical and her first novel, Raising the Stakes, was published in October 2015.
