I've Got 55 Problems and Books Are All of Them : Guest : Jennifer Swanson

from Science, Actually Presents : The Nerd and the Scientist

Jennifer Swanson woke up one day and thought, "what have I done with my life?" So at the ripe old age of 5 (yes, FIVE), she wrote and illustrated her first book about science. Since then she didn't do much - other than graduate from the U.S. Naval Academy with a degree in Chemistry, taught chemistry, got a master’s degree in K–8 Science Education, gave a Ted Talk and wrote 55 more books. Kovi and Benjamin, however, have an assortment of rubber ducks.Follow us everywhere!Find Benjamin at Science, Actually : https://www.scienceactually.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/actuallyscienceFind Kovi at Fun Fact Science : https://www.funfactscience.com/ & https://www.facebook.com/funfactscienceFind Jennifer here https://jenniferswansonbooks.com/
