Ada Twist is the Queen of Questions. Like, why does hot coffee smell stronger than cold? What kind of birds live in her backyard? And, especially, why does her brother Arthur get so cranky when she borrows his stuff for experiments? But Ada’s questions really come in handy when her friend Rosie Revere needs help. Rosie’s Uncle Ned has gotten carried away in his famous helium pants, and Ada needs some answers—fast! How high can Uncle Ned float? Will he fly off into outer space? And, most important, how can they get him down? With the help of her fellow Questioneers Iggy Peck and Rosie Revere, her brother Arthur, and some new friends, Ada Twist is ready to save the day!

Ada Twist and the Perilous Pants is the second in a unique and exciting series of chapter books for children, parents, and teachers who want to make STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fun.

Mia I. ★★★★★

I bought this for my curious 6-year-old and she immediately started asking "why does my brother get cranky?" just like Ada—the questions in the story sparked a whole new round of real-life inquiries. The hardcover binding feels sturdy enough for repeated readings.

Thomas ★★★★★

My nephew was absolutely captivated by the story, especially the part where Ada's experiments with her brother's pants take a hilarious turn. The sturdy paperback held up well to his eager page-turning, and it sparked a whole afternoon of his own curious questions.

Jacob ★★★★★

Ada's endless questions finally get a proper adventure in this book—my nephew couldn't stop laughing at the perilous pants scene. The story actually sparks his own curiosity about science and cause-and-effect, which is exactly what we needed.
