Description
Welcome to The Amazing World of STEM! Stuart Tyson Elmo Morgan, or STEM as his friends and family affectionately call him, loves his community, friends, and learning almost as much as he loves his family.
So, when STEM’s dad suffers an injury during the family game of soccer, STEM sets out to ensure his dad doesn’t lose his mail carrier job. What STEM comes up with to help his dad continue working amazes everyone. In the end, the bourgeoning engineer not only makes his parents proud, but he reminds us all about the power of love, the imaginative spirit of a child, and the universal importance of dreams.
The Amazing World of STEM is the perfect book for any child who is intellectually ambitious, globally, and culturally curious, and compassionate. Co-authors, son and father, Naeem K. Turner-Bandele and Nathaniel A. Turner craft a picture book illustrated by Keva M. Richardson that exemplifies and promotes the need for diversity in science, technology, engineering, and the societal benefits of combining STEM with the best of humanity.

The Amazing World of STEM
by Naeem Khari Turner-Bandele & Nathaniel A. Turner, JD, MALS
What a positive book, a young family has a great connection. But a tragic break makes the son show the possibility of problem solving. Its a great book for encouraging children to solve problems in new and inventive ways.

STEM is a likeable son and problem-solver. The family if realistic and warm. Children could learn many lessons from STEM and his family. Teachers would find this book helpful when connecting to STEM and scientific concepts like solar-power. The book flows well and is an enjoyable read.

This was such a fun and important read! STEM & his parents played soccer one Saturday morning but due to an injury - STEM is inspired to create something to help his dad with work. The book is filled with diversity and inspiration! Thank you to Netgalley for this e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I thought that this book was great and it was really inspirational!
The images were great and I loved how proud STEMs dad was too – a delightful story
It is 4 stars from me for this one, highly recommended!

This book is the very first 21 century focused type of read that absolutely all parents and their children need to add to their list of must reads. Exposure to the world of STEM is something we all should guide our youth towards if we really consider them our most valuable assets and truly want them to succeed in life and change this world for the betterment of us all. In addition, this book also illustrates the importance of having a diverse community that provides excellent personal and professional support for our children to grow and look upon each and every role represented, as an example of who they may someday strive to emulate. Therefore, I plan to purchase several copies to give to my family now and to others as gifts during the holidays and beyond!!!

I’ve been in education for over 25 years and am always looking for high quality children’s literature. I was immediately drawn to the cover because Stem looks like the children in my classroom. This is a must have for my classroom library because it promotes some of the things I work to instill in my students: service to others, curiosity and problem solving. Perfect intro to the idea of STEM. I hope this father/son duo have a series in mind and allow us to grow up with Stem.
