Look Up Series - Tracey, Theme Park Designer

The nonfiction biography series from award-winning “American Girl” author Aubre Andrus invites eight- to 12-year-old kids into the world of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (S.T.E.A.M.) by introducing diverse female role models in S.T.E.A.M. careers through a combination of biographical content, actionable advice, and hands-on activities.

In “Tracy, Theme Park Designer,” young readers learn how Tracey blends art and science to create theme park attractions, and then follow a step-by-step process to create their own ride idea.

“I desperately wanted to be an Imagineer –  and even mailed a letter to Disney Imagineering when I was 10,” Andrus told us. “’Tracey, Theme Park Designer’ […] teaches all about how theme park attractions are created […] it’s the book I wish I had when I was a kid.”
