The goal of The Quaint and Quizzical Cosmos series is to introduce deep human history to kids in a fun and whimsical way. The first book, The Quaint and Quizzical The Big Bang, introduces children to basic physics concepts, including matter, energy, and gravity. These books are meant to stimulate curiosity about the natural world, not teach technical scientific concepts. The intention of The Quaint and Quizzical Cosmos series is to start a conversation about science and spark ambitious questions.
Natalie Del Favero is a Californian born and raised. She started writing humorous poetry at the young age of 13 and has since evolved her writing style to include educational science topics. She developed a knack for teaching while working as a preschool instructor in Los Angeles, CA and has applied her knowledge of early childhood education to write and produce creative and entertaining books for early readers.
Natalie's love of science sprouted at the University of Southern California where she studied Neuroscience and Human Evolutionary Biology. Currently, Natalie resides in the San Francisco East Bay in her hometown with her loving family and dog, Snickers. She hopes to use her literary talents to promote science education to children everywhere.
Cute! Enjoyable children's book with some big words they will not understand but will have heard (when they hear them again and again). Photos are great and colorful for kids. I loved it and am sure my grandkids will also.
