Nadia Higgins is the author of 50-plus books for children. She also worked as an editor in the industry for almost ten years. Many of her books have a science bent, though she’s also written about pop stars, car art, and zombies.
Nadia's favorite part of being a writer is doing research. "I'm always looking for that vivid detail or off-the-wall fact," she says. Her books often use humor or fiction techniques to bring a nonfiction topic to life.
Besides writing, Nadia enjoys dancing, making soup, and doing puzzles. She lives in Minneapolis with her husband and two young daughters.
5 out of 5 stars. Copyright - 2014. Theme - UFOs. I thought this was a very good book. It included facts, but UFOs are all He said, she said So it is still considered fiction. I would use this in my classroom as a fun book to read, it gives certain facts about different tools, and it allows students to come up with their own hypotheses. My favorite part of the book was that there was a long list of UFO sighting at the end. I thought that this was a very cool thing to add to this book, which made it come to life more.
