Nonsense I say. How can this be? I dare you to
pick up this book and not get a giggle out of the Nonsense
Show. Where else will you find a rabbit pulling a child out of
a hat? Or a mouse chasing a cat. What else can you find
in this ridiculous book?

SOLVING THE PUZZLE UNDER THE SEA : MARIE THARP MAPS THE OCEAN
FLOOR
New York : Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 2016
IL K-3, RL 4.4
ISBN 1481416006
I love finding books that tell me about people I would never have
heard about. This is the story of a woman named Marie
Tharp. She lived at a time when women were not encouraged to
learn about science. But she was fascinated by maps.
Her father was a map maker and she often helped him. She was
curious about what was under the ocean. No one knew. Was
it flat or were there mountains that no one could see? She
wanted to know but no one would let her go out and explore.
That didn't stop her though. Find out how she used science
to not only map the ocean floor, but to prove an important theory
about the earth.
