Energetic twins Al and Lottie are always one step away from trouble . . . Al is a fascinated by science and spends his time planning experiments to test his theories and create his inventions, while his sister, Lottie, is crazy about biology and the natural world. Their antics often have unexpected – and messy! – consequences.
In this first book in the series, Egg-Speriments!, Al is determined to make a time-machine – to take him back to a time when their dad was alive and mum was happier, but also as a useful tool to get him out of trouble! First, Al needs to work out the strongest shape for his time-machine capsule with the help of Lottie and their very naughty dog Einstein. Their experiments around force end up using all the eggs in the fridge (meant for dinner!), resulting in a very sticky situation with their neighbours . . . Can they finish their experiment before Mum finds out?!
Jane Clarke is a whizz at telling fun, engaging stories and, coupled with James Brown’s lively and humorous black and white illustrations throughout, Al’s Awesome Science is perfect for children who are becoming confident readers and want to progress to chapter books. With step-by-step experiments to try at home, taken from Al’s own notebook, this series is a fun, accessible introduction to scientific principles.
