Fatal fever by gail jarrow5/30/2023 ![]() ![]() While researching scurvy for a magazine article, I spotted a shelved book on pellagra written by a Cornell professor I had met. Gail Jarrow: It all started with a chance discovery in the Cornell University library stacks. Mary Kay Carson: How did these books come about? Her books have received many honors, including the YALSA Award Nomination for Excellence in Nonfiction, a Notable Social Studies Trade Book, Outstanding Science Trade Book, a NSTA Best STEM book, the Jefferson Cup Award, the Eureka! Gold Award, an Orbis Pictus Recommendation, as well as Kirkus Reviews and School Library Journal Best Books and VOYA Honor Book distinctions. Gail is an author of nonfiction books for ages 8-18 about science and history (and the history of science). ![]() Today we’re interviewing Gail Jarrow about her Deadly Diseases Trilogy: Red Madness, Fatal Fever, and Bubonic Panic.
