Ilustration Concering Books At the Bottom of the World (Jack and the Geniuses #1)

New York Times bestselling authors Bill Nye the Science Guy and Gregory Mone take middle-grade readers on a scientific adventure in the launch of an exciting new chapter book series, Jack and the Geniuses. The perfect combination to engage and entertain readers, the series features real-world science along with action and a mystery that will leave kids guessing until the end, making these books ideal for STEM education.
 
In the series opener, Jack and the Geniuses: At The Bottom of The World, readers meet Jack and his foster siblings, Ava and Matt, who are orphans. But they’re not your typical kind of orphans—they’re geniuses. Well, Ava and Matt are, which sometimes makes life difficult for 1twelve-year-old Jack. Ava speaks multiple languages and builds robots for fun, and Matt is into astronomy and a whiz at math. As for Jack, it’s hard to stand out when he’s surrounded by geniuses all the time.
 
When the kids try to spy on Dr. Hank Witherspoon, one of the world’s leading scientists, they end up working for him in his incredible laboratory. Soon, Hank and the kids travel to Antarctica for a prestigious science competition, but they find that all is not as it seems: A fellow scientist has gone missing, and so has any trace of her research. Could someone be trying to use her findings to win the contest? It’s up to Jack, Ava, and Matt to find the missing scientist and discover who’s behind it all—before it’s too late.
 
Integrating real science facts with humor and suspense, and featuring an ensemble cast of loveable boy and girl characters, this uniquely engaging series is an irresistible chemical reaction for middle-grade readers. With easy-to-read language presented in a fun, motivating, and accessible way, this series opener is a great book for both inquisitive kids and reluctant readers. The book also includes information about the science discussed and used to solve the mystery, as well as a cool science project about density that kids can do at home or in the classroom.

Bill Nye's brand new talk show series for Netflix, "Bill Nye Saves the World" is set to launch in Spring 2017.

Ehh, not too bad. Fun but totally unbelievable story of 3 independently, well-off emancipated minors who discover their neighbor is a tech genius who enlists their help with a trip to Antarctica. Still with me? The kids embark on a mission to find a missing scientist deep in the snow covered landscape. If you can suspend all logic and knowledge of the real world, you'd probably enjoy this. It's perfect for kids: silly, unreal, and completely harmless. It's the first in a series so I'm sure this

243 pages. I read one chapter/21 pages and I have no idea what is going on in this book. It is weird, techy, boring and involves kids interacting with robots. It has a small font and seems more like MS level reading. It says in the book fair app that it is Age 9-12, Grade 4-8, but I would skip this one for ES. Not recommended for ES.After reading the whole book... 243 pgs. I cannot believe I finally finished this book. It took me forever. Some books just seem to move slowly and take longer, huh?

Jack, Matt, and Ava are all foster kids who have been granted the right to live on their own. That may sound odd, but everyone assumes that geniuses are smart enough to take care of themselves. Only Matt and Ava are really geniuses; Jack is just an ordinary kid who likes to read. When the three foster siblings come to the attention of scientist Hank Witherspoon, things get very interesting. Soon they're accompanying him to Antarctica to help out with a contest for a new invention. But when they

Jack refers to his two foster siblings as "the geniuses." The three of them ended up in the same foster home several years back and by working together were able to declare themselves emancipated minors, even though Jack and Ava are just 12 and Matt is 15. Through several fortunate coincidences, they discover that eccentric inventor Henry (Hank) Witherspoon is living nearby, and are ecstatic when he takes them all on as apprentices. When he asks them to join him on a trip to Antarctica to judge

Jack and his two genius siblings, Matt and Ava, have a new mentor. Hank (a contender for the prestigious Clutterbuck Prize) can offer sufficient challenge for the genius set, providing them with an "alternative education" in the most practical of ways. A trip. To a very science-y locale. Namely ... Antarctica. Lots of humor and information, which makes the fact that this is as sneakily educational as all of Bill Nye's "Science Guy" programs. Fun with purpose. Not a bad thing.

I had planned on giving this book 3 - 3.5 stars; however, after Bill Nye's f*cking stellar performance on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver that attempted to warn everyone about the seriousness of climate change and global warming this past Sunday, I have decided to bump it up to 4 stars. I read this to my 11-year-old. I would say this is more of an independent read, but he wasn't interested in reading this one independently, and I wanted to get it off his shelf to make room for new reads. In
