A NEW BOOK COMING MARCH 17th, 2026!
THE WORLD IS FACING BOTH A HOUSING SHORTAGE AND A CLIMATE CRISIS!
Imagine pushing a button and a machine 3D-prints eco-friendly houses in months, weeks, or even days. Or using state-of-the-art factories to quickly manufacture modular mass timber homes—and these buildings can slow climate change. And what if robots, drones, wearable devices and immersive technologies were our superhelpers?
​
Is innovation risky? Is it scary? You bet! But not innovating is way riskier! The world’s housing and climate crises need solutions—now!
​
In this illustrated nonfiction STEAM book, middle-grade readers (ages 9-12) discover why homes matter for our health and happiness and meet trailblazers who are reimagining ways to build affordable, eco-friendly homes quickly. Powered by curiosity, teamwork, and a passion for change, these innovators are challenging old rules and ways of doing things and proving that we can create affordable, green housing and healthy communities at the same time…

SUPER STRENGTH, SUPER HEARING, SUPER VISION, AND SUPER CONNECTION WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY IS GIVING HUMANS SUPER POWERS.
Imagine being able to run without getting tired. Or travel to the moon to look at Earth for science class. The technologies that make these things possible are mixing into our lives faster than we realize!
Discover how technological innovation can help people survive, live better lives and thrive. But what if technology helps some people but not others? What if super strength results in endless work? What if living in a virtual world affects our humanity? Can innovation go too far? Meet the inventors, designers, engineers, scientists and young people asking these questions and navigating the next tech frontier.
I was floored when I saw this book! I'm creating a new social studies curriculum for grade 6 students and an overarching inquiry question in one of our units is, 'Is the power unleashed by technology worth it?' Superpower? The Wearable-Tech Revolution is a perfect resource for this inquiry.
