Great email. Here via your TED talk about Tinkering School (and then via Googling you). I’m doing my best to take your advice (have been for about 2 years now) but it’s scary and slow… Still, seeing your projects, your success, and your passion is so encouraging. Thanks!

I am watching your TED talk as I write. Love it. I did all those things as a kid (and still do). My wife and I have a 2 yr old boy and 6 week old girl and I can’t wait to introduce them to all of these things and more. I will look for your book.

You’ll be pleased to know that the book is in progress and should be completed before your 5 month-old can read.

Gever,

I’m watching your TED talk on iTunes, and as a new father to a 5 month old, I’d love to have your book. Are you still working on the book?
