Learn Science with Stories
I’m Lisa. I have a PhD in Biochemistry and a passion for teaching DNA and evolution to a primary audience. I feel privileged to teach your child and have created the Dinky Amigos so they can learn about the science of us without any of the complicated chemistry.
I write books aimed at 9-12 year olds which combine science fact and process into an easy-to-read and simple to understand, illustrated story about what happens inside of us.
To accompany my school workshop, I would like to offer you and your child up to 25% discount off the retail price. Please tap the green button to purchase and fill in the information if you would like a dedication in the book.
