In case you didn’t realize it, March is Women’s History Month! To celebrate, Katie at Doing Dewey is hosting the Women In Science History Reading Challenge. This is a wonderful follow-up to last month’s #NFBookClub read-along of Headstrong by Rachel Swaby.
This is a little last minute for me and as you can see from my March reading map, I already have a pretty full month of reading planned. I am going to try to squeeze in at least one more book, though, because there are so many interesting books about women scientists on my reading list.
Here are just a few that appeal to me:
- Rocket Girl by George D. Morgan
- The Girls of Atomic City by Denise Kiernan
- Lise Meitner: A Life In Physics by Ruth Lewin Sime
- Rosalind Franklin: The Dark Lady of DNA by Brenda Maddox
If you think this sounds like a fun project for March, be sure to check out Women In Science History Reading Challenge at Doing Dewey!
I love this event! I'm in the same boat as you, though, and already have a full load this month. I'll try to squeeze one in if I can, though! I'll be interested to see which of these books you choose.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing, Kim! I'm having a little bit of a hard time even fitting in books myself because I did end up planning pretty last minute, but hopefully next year I'll get it planned earlier :)
