Review quotes
New York Times:
"An energetic, good-hearted escapade, one that young readers will enjoy." Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews
* "Hilarious. If ever a new series deserved to go viral, this one does." The Bulletin:
"A perfect mix of writing that is simple enough for early readers but still remarkably snarky, clever, and entertaining. Kids will soak up the humor, tidbits of science instruction, and adventure."
