Have you explored the recently reopened California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park? It’s a fantastic, interactive place, with an indoor rainforest, a planetarium, a knobby green roof (which you can inspect from an observation deck that offers a view of the entire city as well) and an entire subterranean level full of shimmering aquariums. It really takes all day to see everything. The exhibits are incredibly well-designed, and really encourage curiosity. On the top floor, there’s even a Naturalist Center, where I was happy to discover four of my books, as well as lots of other Dawn Publications titles, in the children’s library. Always fun to say hello to them when I run into my books in unexpected places.
