Books by Blei: The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate

The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate
by Jacqueline Kelly

Recommended by: Claire R.
The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate is a qurky book about 11-year-old Calpurnia or "Cal" for short. In the summer of a terrible drought, Cal starts noticing things she never saw before: like how the grasshoppers were changing color. As she notices these things her relationship with her grandfather (who typically stays in his study) grows stronger as they study the world around them. In this curious book you will realize there is more in the world if you take the time to stop and look for it.

This book was:  Quirky and Curious!

I would recommend this book to: Science and historical fiction fans.

I rate this book:
