Mac is a budding scientist. His partner in messy experiments, Marcus, moved away right after the start of the school year, leaving Mac without a best friend. When an obnoxious new kid, Mac R., gets paired with Mac for the long-anticipated fourth grade science fair, his talent for science will be put to good use.
Cute story; best for younger readers. Kids who like science will enjoy the volcano recipe in the back of the book.
