Fans of Ada Twist, Scientist, will want to enroll in Dr. Cosmic's
class of clever monsters at the Mad Scientist Academy as they solve the
greatest challenges in science in this perfect blend of adventure and
exploration.
Welcome to Mad Scientist Academy! The first day of school is always
exciting, and Dr. Cosmic's new students can't wait to get started. After
their teacher reveals that their school pet, Oscar, is a dinosaur, they
quickly realize Dr. Cosmic has an unusual teaching style. To find Oscar,
the class has to follow the clues through the realistic dinosaur exhibit
Dr. Cosmic designed and built over the summer. But when a malfunction
causes the robotic dinosaurs to come alive, this prehistoric exhibit
feels a little too real!
"Dr. Cosmic is plainly a colleague of Ms. Frizzle, and the mix of
pithy banter, tumultuous field-trip mishaps, and science fact is as
familiar as it is winning. Fans of the Frizz will be dino-delighted.
Mad fun." --Kirkus Reviews, Starred
"Like Joanna Cole and Bruce Degen's 'Magic School Bus' series
(Scholastic), the use of a school setting, a quirky teacher, and wild
hands-on learning situations provides an engaging blend of humor,
adventure, and information." --School Library Journal
"One of Summer's Must-Read Children's Books." --Bookish.com
