The Magic School Bus for a new generation! Enroll in Dr. Cosmic’s class of clever monsters at the Mad Scientist Academy as they solve the greatest challenges in science, in this perfect blend of adventure and exploration. Welcome to Mad Scientist Academy! The first day of school is always exciting, and Dr. Cosmic’s new students can’t wait to get started. After their teacher reveals that their school pet, Oscar, is a dinosaur, they quickly realize Dr. Cosmic has an unusual teaching style. To find Oscar, the class has to follow the clues through the realistic dinosaur exhibit Dr. Cosmic designed and built over the summer. But when a malfunction causes the robotic dinosaurs to come alive, this prehistoric exhibit feels a little too real! "Dr. Cosmic is plainly a colleague of Ms. Frizzle, and the mix of pithy banter, tumultuous field-trip mishaps, and science fact is as familiar as it is winning. Fans of the Frizz will be dino-delighted. Mad fun." —Kirkus Reviews, Starred"Like Joanna Cole and Bruce Degen’s “Magic School Bus” series (Scholastic), the use of a school setting, a quirky teacher, and wild hands-on learning situations provides an engaging blend of humor, adventure, and information." —School Library Journal"One of Summer's Must-Read Children's Books" —Bookish.comKids' Indie Next List

We had checked out this book from the library.. 4 weeks went by and she asked me to please renew it... We renewed it again and just decided I had to get it! My daughter loves this book! She loves science and this is one of her favorite books she has now.

The Mad Scientist Academy successfully introduces science to its young readers. The unique illustrations and readable text carry the story to the last page. My grand children loved it, I hope the next series will be as good.

My sons (8 and 4 years old) both enjoyed this graphic novel. It's also full of facts about dinosaurs. The text and illustrations are great. We can't wait for the second book in this series to come out.

This is a cute book that engaged my 6 yr old. She wanted to re-read it several times and it generated a lot of questions and teaching opportunities. My only gripe is the title: i do not think "mad" and science should be used together. I hesitated to buy this book because of that, and i hope the author will rename the academy for the next volume.

Good book for my 6 year old grandson. Good combination of reading and comic book drawings!

My son loves it. A great book with a comic book feel to it.

My daughter loves all things dinosaur. Facts are made fun and engaging. Looking forward to series. 5 year ago led loves it and keeps going back to read over and over again.

Great story and illustrations by a very talented children's book author My 5 year old granddaughter enjoyed it immensely.
