Ellen Olson-Brown

Ellen Olson-Brown has always loved children, words, ideas, words, and silliness.  She has been a kindergarten and preschool teacher, a mother, and now she works with researchers who are using giant brain cameras called fMRI scanners to learn more about how kids brains work when they do puzzles or listen to stories.  Someday she’d like to see pictures of kids’ brains reading her books and find out which parts are working hardest during the silly parts!
