The Quirkles
In a galaxy far, far away named Quirk, there lived the Quirkles. The Quirkles were unique little scientists who had vivid imaginations and loved to experiment. Thus begins the story of the Quirkles and their friends. Read all 26 books, one for each letter of the alphabet, that integrate storytelling, phonemic illiteration, whimsical illustration, and hands-on activities.
Fuddlebrook
There's always a cool science adventure going on in Mrs. Wigglebum's class at Fuddlebrook School. Join Herman Tweed, the class pet hamster, and the whole gang as they learn how much fun science can be. Through stories and inquiry-based, hands-on activities, science comes alive! Available April 2016!
Here you have it—the Quirkles creators. You were expecting some big corporate conglomerate perhaps? Even though we do have some loyal assistants who help us keep reign over all things Quirkles (and now Fuddlebrook too), you’re more than likely to talk to one of us directly if you call on the phone to place an order or attend a conference. So if you have a question or comment, call or email us!
The truth is, we didn’t set out to develop the Quirkles®. We were trying to find a product to meet our own needs that integrated science and literacy for young learners. We didn’t want the “typical” science text or something so watered down it would bore today’s child silly. When we couldn’t find it; we created it! With Terri’s elementary education/literacy background, Sherry’s work in business and product development, and Jesse’s talent as a illustrator and designer, a team was formed!
So now what? You came back and told us we had developed "science monsters," kids that are super excited about science. What could we do as a followup? We've created the Fuddlebrook School Science Series! This can be used along with the Quirkles to add more variety, expanding on some topics and adding new concepts as well, or can be used at the next grade level. We introduce a new illustrator too, Brittany Bilyeu!
