Charlotte the Scientist Finds a Cure by Camille Andros illustrated by Brianne Farley*

Sarah Mackenzie interviewed Ms. Andros last week her Read Aloud podcast.  Immediately, I requested all of her books!
This book is a must read for individuals who love science (and who want to promote it)!  Charlotte, a rabbit,  is a serious scientist.  Her grandfather tells her that she will make a difference in the world.  One day her grandfather becomes seriously ill, and soon other animals in the forest are infected by a strange malady.  Charlotte sets out to determine the cause and to find the cure.
Lots of alliteration!
Lots of science/medical words (glossary included in the back).
I read this aloud to my boys, and my nine year old immediately said, "Read it again!".  This book has been written for younger readers, but my boys seemed to like it too!
-Borrowed from the library.
*Highly recommend.
--We will soon be reading the second book, Charlotte the Scientist Is Squished.
