While it is not always possible for children to understand their parents’ work, it does not stop them from trying. However, when an 8-year-old came across her father’s bound thesis, she was quick to review it. Taking to Twitter, the father, Adam Phillippy, shared a picture of the review along with a caption that read, “My 8yo came across my bound thesis in the basement, ‘read’ it and spontaneously wrote me this note. I will now be listing her as a suggested reviewer for all my manuscript submissions.”

“I was very amazed by your work. It surprised me that it took you four whole years to write that thesis. I am sure it took a lot of hard work. I found out lots of things about genome sequence. I also like learning about what you studied and were interested in. A lot of things made me say ‘awesome’,” read the review by the little girl.
