Danielle Passaglia is the author of two books that focus on Lucy and introducing children to the field of engineering and HVAC&R careers. Lucy's Engineering Adventure - published in multiple languages - shares a young girl's visit to an unfinished building, where her father uses a metaphor of the human body to explain the building's beams and columns, electrical system, and HVAC ducts. Lucy's curiosity is encouraged by her father throughout.

ASHRAE is an international society of heating, refrigerating and air-conditioning professionals. This was ASHRAE's first picture book and was developed by ASHRAE’s Student Activities Committee as part of their goal to promote and encourage engineering and HVAC&R careers.
