4-6Frank Einstein series.
Illustrated by
Brian Biggs.
In his third book, genius Frank uses his big brain to secure his pal, Janegoodall, a spot on the baseball team by fine-tuning the human body. Complete with trusty robot sidekicks and an archrival, this joke-filled, slapstick story is interwoven with real science. Back matter extends the knowledge and includes puzzles and baseball tips. Three-color illustrations round out both the humor and science.
