I really enjoyed this book, there were so many bits that made me smile.
I also enjoyed the fact that it shows characters with neurodiversity (ADHD and autism) who are just living life. They have friends, interests, and are navigating school, the same as any other kid. We need more stories like this.

Mona likes to moan. Kiki is a worry-wart. Bart loves following rules. And Zane HATES following rules.
On the surface the authors have cleverly woven the children’s attributes into a delightful and humorous yarn for readers seven to ten years. However, on a deeper level, they have Mrs Mythos, the children’s teacher, purposely put children together that she knows need to learn from each other in order to cooperate.
The children must create and present a science experiment when each has significant learning challenges. Kiki needs to curb her anxiety and participate with a more positive attitude. Bart, who has autism, is compelled to accept the shortcomings of the others in order to concentrate on his tasks and Mona must learn to be more positive and less depressed in her efforts to contribute. Zane, having ADHD, finds it extremely difficult adhering strictly to the rules. He cannot help modifying the experiment - with spectacular results.
I smiled frequently throughout this book and I think children who love science will be delighted by it.

The Secret Science Society’s Spectacular Experiment
By: Kathy Hoopmann and co author Josie Montano
This book will be published on August 10th 2019, I got an early review copy by the publisher and I am very honored to have this opportunity to read and review the book before it’s on the shelves!
And this is what I wrote: Secret+Science+Society! What more could anyone ask for? This book is such an amazing catastrophe that will blow your mind away!
During one of Kathy Hoopmann’s sessions that I attended, we watched a short video of Kathy and her co author doing some science experiments. They were looking really excited and happy and that enthusiasm combined with Kathy Hoopmann’s secret and special ingredient made this book incredibly interesting.
This is the sixth book by Kathy that I have read, and I find it amazing how with every new idea in all of her books she manages to introduce us to a different character with a Social Syndrome each time and makes us more aware about it.
It’s a good read and I enjoyed it!
