Weekend book festival to feature science

If you have kids and are in Marion County this weekend, stop by the Marion County Public Library. They’re hosting an annual book festival that features science as its theme. It looks like a lot of fun!

“I make tea bags fly. I levitate ping-pongs, and I blow up toilet paper,” said [author Vicki] Cobb, who compares herself to the Pied Piper. “But, there is a lot of real science involved in what I do. Instead of bringing children into the world of science, I bring science into the world of children… I see myself as a teacher, but I’m not teaching. I entertain and I motivate.”
