About the author
Paige V. Polinsky is the author of children's nonfiction titles for Blastoff! Discovery, including Ghost Ships and ESP. Ghost Ships surveys the folklore and reported sightings of phantom vessels, presented through maps, infographics, and a profile of one well-known example. ESP introduces young readers to parapsychology, clairvoyance, and some of the experiments researchers have run to test or disprove claims of psychic ability. Both books follow the series format typical of early-reader nonfiction: a narrative opening, clearly labeled diagrams, and factual framing pitched at a school and library audience rather than an adult readership. They present their subjects as topics of ongoing debate and curiosity rather than as established fact, in keeping with the series' educational aim. Parents, teachers, and young readers interested in an accessible, illustrated introduction to unexplained phenomena are the intended audience.
