Ever dreamed of asking a favorite author about her books? What she loves to read and where she gets her ideas? Children at Irwin Elementary School in North Carolina had the opportunity to interview Andrea Beaty for their school’s Mustangs Broadcasting Network. Tune in and see what they learned!

Andrea Beaty is a computer scientist/technical writer turned author of books for children, whose books Iggy Peck, Architect and Rosie Revere, Engineer have been on the New York Times Best Sellers list for over six months.

On this visit, we brought Andrea to three elementary schools to speak with 1500 RIF kids about science, math, engineering, American history, and books! We were also joined by Senator Richard Burr’s district representative Janet Bradbury and the Fort Bragg Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Emily Marsh.

If you don’t know these books yet, you owe it to yourself and the children in your life to check them out or add to your personal family library!

Thanks again, Andrea!
