It's a pretty normal day for Logan Applebaum until his inventor mother announces that she's built him a new robot cousin. And Java may be really smart, but he's also going to be a major handful. No one can know about his secret. This is going to be a long school year. With the third grade science fair coming up, though, Logan thinks maybe a super computer cousin could come in handy and he'll finally have a shot at beating the nosey Silverspoon twins who win at everything. But when Sherry and Jerry steal Java as their partner, and then start suspecting something is up with the new kid, can Logan think fast before this crazy experiment becomes an epic disaster? In Science No Fair! internationally bestselling author, Nancy Krulik and her incredibly talented daughter, Amanda Burwasser, team up to introduce a new comedic pair that combines the literalness of Amelia Bedelia with a wacky modern edge, making for hours of laughter.
