Description
Ada Twist's head is full of questions. Like her classmates Iggy and Rosie (stars of their own New York Times bestselling picture books Iggy Peck, Architect and Rosie Revere, Engineer), Ada has always been endlessly curious.
Ada is an inquisitive second grader who was born to be a scientist. She possesses an unusual desire to question everything she encounters: a tick-tocking clock, a pointy-stemmed rose, the hairs in her dad's nose, and so much more. Ada's parents and her teacher, Miss Greer, have their hands full as Ada's science experiments wreak day-to-day havoc.
Even when her fact-finding missions and elaborate scientific experiments don't go as planned, Ada learns the value of thinking through problems and continuing to stay curious.
