Reviews

Praise forMad Scientist Academy: The Dinosaur Disaster
An informative but hair-raising tour of a rather-too-realistic dinosaur exhibit gives six new students a memorable first day at Mad Scientist Academy. . . . Mad fun. Kirkus Reviews, Starred

Like Joanna Cole and Bruce Degens 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
