Buttons and Pockets


What if clowns created the universe? What's the connection between juggling and astrophysics? Can we sew up the Fabric of Spacetime into a stylish new suit?! Buttons & Pockets is a fable about creativity, the cosmos, & how we weave science and art into the fabric of reality. For kids, physicists, & the young at heart.
