The Adventures of Nicki and Ricky
Created by an Autistic educator and an ADHD artist (and parent of an 8 year old), our trilogy of comics foster independent inquiry, joy in the outdoors, and a love of nature. The Science Investigators’ Workbook guides kids through the steps of storytelling AND the scientific method, to make their own comic.
Nicki and Ricky are on a mission to solve nature’s puzzles, finding clues in the wilds of their own suburban neighborhood. Join them in three 40-page graphic novels for early readers – available for e-book preorder now, paperback and hardcover editions coming soon!
Nicki likes to speculate – Ricky would rather investigate. These siblings don’t have the same attitude, but they do know if they keep their eyes open, they’ll be able to figure it out.
