By: Patricia Daniele | Illustrator: Junyi Wu | Series: Curious MindsDiscover the eye-opening story of the first woman student at MIT—a pioneering environmental chemist sure to inspire the next generation of female trailblazers in science.
Ellen Swallow found a friend in nature and a lifelong love of science as a child exploring the woods around her family’s home. She was a voracious learner with an interest in chemistry, and continuing her education at the newly established Massachusetts Institute of Technology seemed a good fit. But in 1871, many believed that women belonged in the home, not in schools dedicated to the study of science. Ellen thought, why not both? She believed science could help solve the problems of everyday life, including the pollution she observed in Boston, so when offered the chance to study the city’s water systems, she seized it. What she found would change the way we think about clean water. In her lifetime, Ellen pioneered science education for women, advocated for a healthier environment, and helped develop the field of ecology. The Girl Who Tested the Waters, with engaging text and soft, inviting illustrations, portrays a woman ahead of her time and her tireless efforts to bring about change for good. Curious readers can find more in the back matter, including a time line, an author’s note, source notes, and a bibliography.

Smells bad
This product smells like acetone, which makes me believe that the ingredients might have gone bad. The matching shampoo smells good and no issue there but this conditioner is questionable.

Love it!
I've always been a fan of Babo's amazing sunscreens, so when I heard they were diving into hair care, I was intrigued. And let me tell you, their natural conditioner doesn't disappoint! It works like a charm, leaving my hair silky smooth. Plus, knowing Babo's dedication to eco-friendly sun protection, I'm all in for this refreshing addition (and packaging) to their lineup. It's a win-win for my hair and the planet!

Very liquidy
Spilled from the spout because it was too liquidy for a conditioner- more of a body wash consistency.

It’s not for dry curly hair
Very good non-toxic choice but it does not support dry curly hair.

Disappointed
First off the smell isn't very pleasant. My shampoo and conditioner came in a small bottle and half empty. Reached out to seller and than sent me a new one still the smell wasn't very pleasant and it did nothing for my hair.
