Mr. ZIP Invites Young Readers to Learn About S.T.E.A.M.
In His New Activity Book with His Best Friend B. Franklin
| 
May 9, Mt. Laurel, NJ: Mr. ZIP™ is back for a whole new generation, and his latest mission for kids is a deep dive into S.T.E.A.M. subjects across a fun-filled activity book, from the United States Postal Service® (USPS), under license with Curiosity Ink Media (a division of Grom Social Enterprises, Inc.), and distributed by Dynamite Entertainment.
Children can explore science, technology, engineering, math, and even art alongside the hardworking hero of the Postal Service in this new summer release. Writer Carrie Rodell and artist Laura Catrinella have assembled 80 pages full of fun. Each page is jam-packed with mazes to solve, differences to spot, cool activities, and much more.
The book focuses on S.T.E.A.M. subjects, as educators and parents look to integrate the arts alongside traditional science, technology, engineering, and math disciplines. This innovative approach to education emphasizes critical thinking, imaginative and creative approaches to academic challenges, and real-world problems.
Mr. ZIP's Super Steam Activity Book is a top choice for 3-to-5-year-olds getting a head-start on critical skills and seeking fun!
The USPS introduced Mr. ZIP, or “Zippy” in 1963 as a fun cartoon personification to help spur widespread usage of the new ZIP Code™ system. The USPS, Curiosity, and Dynamite are excited to celebrate the 60th anniversary of this classic American icon as he stars in a new series of licensed books. Young readers can also seek out Mr. ZIP's Windy Day to follow an adventure and have fun with liftable flaps throughout and can look forward to Mr. ZIP’s Day in the Countryside and Where’s MR. ZIP?, coming this fall.
MR. ZIP'S SUPER STEAM ACTIVITY BOOK will be solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ May 2024 Previews catalog and slated for release in July 2024.
