Upcoming Release

Periodic Fables: Book 1

Periodic Fables brings elements to life through vibrant graphic novels where science becomes adventure. In "Two Noble Pals," roommates Argon and Neon couldn't be more different—one craves quiet while the other glows with creativity. When Neon enters them in a TV competition without asking, their contrasting personalities demonstrate fundamental scientific principles, showing 8-11 year old readers that the strongest bonds don't always require chemical reactions.

"What did you just say? ... That's our science lesson!"
