Short summary
In this paper, I describe two projects that use children's books as science communication tools. The first project is the writing, illustration, translation, and distribution of a children's book that describes the environment of coastal Bangladesh. The second project is an undergraduate course that requires students to produce a children's book on a scientific topic. Both projects demonstrate the potential impact of children's books on students, scientists, and local communities.
