A young inventor takes on global problems

Max Einstein’s inventive projects begin with practical concerns, including building devices to help homeless people, then expand into a mission to tackle difficult problems through science. Recruited by a mysterious organization, Max joins young geniuses from around the world to develop ways of bringing power to remote parts of the planet, while a group called The Corporation threatens their work. The book also gives Max an imaginative connection to Albert Einstein, clearly framed as something she pictures rather than a real conversation. Invention, collaboration, and the use of science to address human needs shape this adventure.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Kids ages 9–12 interested in science and invention
  • Readers who enjoy fictional teams of young problem-solvers
