Never give up! submitted by Xris on February 7, 2022, 2:13pm Her parents tried to stop her, the universities tried to stop her, and the scientists/mathematicians tried to stop her, but she solve a problem no one else could! I looked up videos for the Chladni plate experiments because of this book. I'm recommending them to my 8th grade physical science teacher friend! Go girls!
