Tinker Thinkers

by Amy Leask

Ah, there’s nothing like a good argument! No, we don’t mean the kind of argument where you scrunch up your face, get angry, and stomp around. We mean the kind of argument where you share your thoughts with others, and explain the reasons behind them. Meet the Tinker Thinkers! Equipped with the tools of logic and reason, this team of pint-sized ponderers build their way to better ideas. Join them as they explore the parts of an argument, and learn new ways to test its strength. You’ll find that building an argument is one of the most important skills a person can learn...and it can be fun too! Ages 7-10

About the author

Amy is living proof that you can do something good with a philosophy degree (she actually has two). A self-proclaimed word nerd and author, she’s tickled pink to be able to combine her love of ideas with more than 10 years as an educator and curriculum developer. Amy firmly believes that great philosophers come in all sizes, and is committed to helping people see the power of their own ideas. When she isn’t busy writing and philosophizing, she enjoys world travel, extreme baking and pondering the mysteries of the universe with her own little philosopher.
