EUREK-HER! Stories of Inspirational Women in STEM - POS pack and digital resources

EUREK-HER! Stories of Inspirational Women in STEM by Frances Durkin, illustrated by Nur Ventura

Inspirational stories about women who had a eureka moment!

Women have been changing the world with important scientific discoveries and inventions for thousands of years. From making perfume in ancient Mesopotamia to saving the planet with recycled paving blocks in modern-day Kenya, young readers will learn how women throughout history have turned their ideas into important inventions that still help and inspire people today.

After reading their stories, readers can practise their own STEM skills with 12 simple step-by-step activities that relate to the discoveries you can read about in the book, including:

  •         Making a fossil
  •         Setting off a chain reaction
  •         Playing the ‘smell test’ game
  •         and even measuring something that you can’t see!

A truly inspiring non-fiction book about women and STEM, ideal for children 8 and over.

The perfect book for both British Science Week (7-16 March 2025) and International Women’s Day (8 March 2025).
