I’ve been talking a lot lately about the newest addition to the storytelling with data family—a delightful dragon named Daphne, who aims to bring the magic of numbers and graphs to a young audience. She is the heroine of my new children’s book, Daphne Draws Data.

Yesterday, I had great fun reading the entire book aloud in a live session that was broadcast around the world. You can watch the recording below (view it now to see the entire book, we’ll soon trim the video per my publisher’s guidance as publication day nears). I also answered viewer questions and shared insight into the story behind Daphne, the book creation process, integrating Daphne Draws Data into school curriculum, libraries, and more. Daphne Draws Data comes out in two short weeks! Order your copy today.

Also check out upcoming events, activities for kids, support for parents and educators, and more at DaphneDrawsData.com. Please join me in warmly welcoming Daphne to the team!
