Max Einstein is just your average 12-year-old girl. Well, apart from the fact that she is a genius. Who just happens to go to university, play speed chess and talk to Albert Einstein (OK, that part is just in her head). Oh, and she’s also a homeless orphan, living above a stables.
Max tries to keep a low profile but can’t help but stand out. She is recruited by a mysterious organisation whose mission is to solve the world’s toughest problems using science. Max joins the gang of young geniuses from all over the world, working on top secret inventions to solve problems like sustainable power and water shortages. But Max hasn’t just caught the attention of the Change Makers’ Institute, the sinister and greedy Corporation are desperate to get to her too… Can Max and her brainy friends outwit the Corporation and use their imagination and intelligence to save the planet?
Max Einstein has to be one of our favourite heroines! She may be a brainbox, but the best thing about her is her imagination and her love of adventure. The science and environmental themes in the books will appeal to lots of young readers and this is the only book series to be officially approved by the Albert Einstein archives.
