Renegade Style: Book Two of the Renegade Girls Tinkering Club
Never underestimate a scientist in a fancy dress. Why do people think sixth-grade scientist Amber Rosenberg can’t be smart and fashionable at the same time? Maybe by winning an internship at the hottest boutique in town, she’ll prove she can. Competition may be fierce, but so is she.
Too young? Too much homework? Sabotaged by wild lunatic squirrels—or something more sinister? Amber’s got it covered. No one knows the science and engineering behind fashion like she does, and she has the best inventors at Ada Lovelace Charter School at her side, the Renegade Girls Tinkering Club.
But when a research project unexpectedly reveals fashion’s dirty environmental secret, Amber must rethink what it means to win. Does she want to stand out, or stand up for what's right?
The Science Channel meets Project Runway Junior in this charming story about friendship, the scientific method, and our impact on the world.
Build DIY PROJECTS along with the Renegades in this interactive adventure encouraging the STEM in all of us. Instructions included for hands-on science and building projects.

Readers’ Comments
“I enjoyed three of these books for the awards. I think the first book is the best, but this is good too. I liked Amber – sort of – she’s a bit too pushy for me. I think it’s good that it shows girls doing well in maths, technology, etc. So that’s a good message.” Girl, aged 12 – with a little help from mum
“Good drama, lots of GIRL POWER! Fab for motivating children, particularly girls, to be all they can be.” Mother of 10 year old girl
“This set of books would be excellent in a school library as a resource for empowering young girls to go into technology (STEM) subjects. Well- written, fast paced, with plenty of drama.” Primary school teacher, aged 59
“I was rooting for Amber to win. Oddly, I didn’t like her as much as, say, Wren, who was the MC in the first book. But I liked Amber’s drive. I never got bored reading the book, and I was happy to then try book three.” Girl, aged 12
To Sum It Up:
‘A FAB novel for 9 – 12 year olds, packed full of school drama and excellent for promoting STEM subjects to girls.’ The Wishing Shelf Book Awards
