A fast-paced, fun-filled adventure packed with cool science facts and STEM excitement that any curious mind will love...
She dreams of becoming an inventor. First, she has to survive middle school...
Putney Hicks just wants things to go right for once. As a socially awkward 12-year-old suddenly dropped into an elite STEM school, she's surrounded by rich kids with more confidence than she can even imagine. Struggling to fit in, Putney can't see her own potential - but everything changes when she stumbles upon a mysterious tablet with an advanced, talkative AI inside.
Wondering if the friendly pixie in the device is alien or supernatural, Putney is determined to keep it safe while exploring its possibilities. But when competitive art and science projects lead to an ill-advised bet with a wealthy mean girl, this would-be engineer may be in way over her head.
Will her new, unpredictable mentor be enough to help her survive her first week in class?
The Secret of the Magic eyePad is the award-winning first book in the Putney Hicks Inventor Adventures series - a fun, clever, and inspiring STEM tale for young readers who love a mix of innovation, middle school drama, and heart.
