I Read Stories: The Field Biology of the Wee Fairies
The Field Biology of the Wee Fairies by Naomi Kritzer
Almost all girls catch a fairy, and then the fairy gives them a gift that will make boys like them, charm or beauty or perfect hair. Amelia isn’t interested in boys though, she’s interested in running experiments on her mice.
The teacher won’t let her in the science club, that’s just for boys. Then one day she catches a fairy. And decides to study her biology...
A charming story about girls and science and growing up and making the non-obvious choice. Oh, and the fairies have a magic power, not the one everyone thinks, but maybe one Amelia needs.
