Walter Isaacson's #1 New York Times bestselling history of our third scientific revolution: CRISPR, gene editing, and the quest to understand the code of life itself, is now adapted for young readers!
When Jennifer Doudna was a sixth grader in Hilo, Hawaii, she came home from school one afternoon and found a book on her bed. It was The Double Helix, James Watson's account of how he and Francis Crick had discovered the structure of DNA, the spiral-staircase molecule that carries the genetic instruction code for all forms of life.
This book guided Jennifer Doudna to focus her studies not on DNA, but on what seemed to take a backseat in biochemistry: figuring out the structure of RNA, a closely related molecule that enables the genetic instructions coded in DNA to express themselves. Doudna became an expert in determining the shapes and structures of these RNA molecules—an expertise that led her to develop a revolutionary new technique that could edit human genes.
Today gene-editing technologies such as CRISPR are already being used to eliminate simple genetic defects that cause disorders such as Tay-Sachs and sickle cell anemia. For now, however, Jennifer and her team are being deployed against our most immediate threat—the coronavirus—and you have just been given a front row seat to that war.

Elephant is hungry. After some exploring, he discovers a field full of carrots and bananas. There's only one problem…
There are bees between him and the delicious bananas and carrots and elephants are afraid of bees. Elephant thinks of a way to get the carrots and bananas without getting stung.
He enlists the help of his friends, Rabbit and Monkey. He doesn't think they will be stung by bees but he conveniently forgets to tell them about the bees anyway.
When Elephant's plan goes wrong and his friends realize he knew about the bees, they decide to teach him a lesson about honesty.
This story was inspired by the Elephants and Bees project in Kenya where farmers protect their crops by using bees to keep elephants away from their land. As a result, farmers now have an additional source of income from the honey produced by the bees.
