Reviews

Michael Rosen is a poet with a superb ear for the rhythms of language

—— Guardian

One of our most popular writers – the champion for every bored, overdrilled, tested-to-tears pupil in the land

—— The Times

I think poetry for children needs to be saved from the cold dissection of right and wrong answers and put back into rooms and halls full of wonder, compassion, haunting, laughter, music and rhythm. We need to hear its many cultures, many voices, many sounds. This is about wide and diverse participation. Diverse verse for all!

—— Michael Rosen, Children's Laureate 2007-2009

An inspirational page-turner that won’t let you down. This book celebrates the importance of young people’s new ideas and endless imaginations.

—— Rachel Ignotofsky, Sunday Times bestselling author of Women in Science

If you’re interested in science, mysteries, or courageous heroines, this is a must-read!

—— Chelsea Clinton

Max Einstein is everything you hope young girls can dream to be: smart, brave, creative, and able to inspire others to be the same. I love this book for all kids who want to dream big!

—— Mayim Bialik, New York Times No. 1 bestselling author of Girling Up and Boying Up

Give this book to the future scientist in your life!

—— Jennifer L. Holm, New York Times bestselling author of The Fourteenth Goldfish

A fast-paced, science-filled caper.

—— The Wall Street Journal

An entertaining and thoughtful exploration of perseverance, friendship, creativity, and identity.

—— Publishers Weekly

This story is packed with excitement and has a brilliant heroine in Max.

—— The Week Junior

If anyone's going to save the planet it will have to be the next generation, and this book could be the inspiration they need. As with lots of Patterson's children's books, this is smart, funny and fast moving, with real heart.

—— Andrea Reece

This contemporary story is perfect for today's readers ... Max is a superb role model, feisty and determined and super-intelligent. Science, mystery, friendship, creativity – this book has so much to offer.

—— Parents in Touch

The series combines fast-paced adventure with an invitation for readers to consider some of the most critical problems facing our planet today, and to believe that, through creative thinking, STEM skills, and a willingness to work together, they might be part of the generation to solve them.
