Violet and Pablo are best friends who love science! So when they discover a riddle that opens a magic portal in the brain fair at school, they can’t wait to check it out! In this adventure, the friends enter the Maker Maze—a magical makerspace—along with a set of twins who are interested in learning all about the brain. The kids can’t wait to solve science puzzles . . . if first, they can learn to work together!

With the help of a hilarious and odd scientist, the Magnificent Makers embark on out-of-this-world adventures that help them master the science concepts they are learning in school. This series will cover several scientific topics (at an age-appropriate level) ranging from human biology to ecology, while also exploring issues such as managing failure, teamwork, courage, and jealousy.

Theanne Griffith

Theanne Griffith, PhD, can’t get you into the Maker Maze (only Dr. Crisp can do that). But she can tell you a lot of cool science facts. She is a brain scientist by day (no, she’s not a zombie) and a storyteller by night. She loves tinkering in the lab as much as she loves writing children’s books. She lives in California with her family and three cats. Visit her online at theannegriffith.com or on Twitter at @doctheagrif.
