    Join Manny in an exploration of temperature and weather, because STEAM is everywhere and for everyone!

    Part of STEAMWORKS, a series of fiction board books for ages 0-3 that relate science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) to kids’ everyday lives.

    Manny has style! But sometimes, Manny’s style does not match the weather. Can Manny learn to observe both the temperature and the weather to build outfits with fashion and function in mind?

    Perfect for parents and caregivers of independent toddlers exploring the world of dressing themselves.

    Extend the learning beyond the story with expertly crafted back matter, including additional information about temperature and weather and fun STEAM activities.

    STEAMWORKS features children of all backgrounds and abilities using scientific and mathematical thinking to solve everyday problems and answer questions that matter to them. Playful stories and extension activities ignite excitement for science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) and empower children as thinkers, problem solvers, and innovators.

    STEAMWORKS board books are also available in Spanish bilingual as Manny y el tiempo hacen juego / Manny Matches the Weather.
