Description
The second book in a new puzzle adventure series takes readers on a thrilling space adventure in the company of Knutz, a STEAM whizz-kid, and canine super-inventor Boltz.
Knutz and Boltz are blasting off to a top-secret space station. A huge asteroid is hurtling towards Earth and the World Space Agency needs four astronauts to embark on an urgent mission to destroy it. With time running out and a rival team of astronauts – a girl and her cat sidekick – sabotaging their every move, Knutz and Boltz will need to use all their STEAM skills to stop the asteroid and save planet Earth.
Featuring an innovative mix of graphic-novel, zany prose and integrated puzzles, this thrilling adventure is guaranteed to engage kids aged 9+ in STEAM subjects. Across six chapters, readers will develop key science, technology, engineering, art and maths skills as they help Knutz and Boltz work their way through the challenges.
Written by Tim Collins, author of Buster’s Dorkius Maximus and Sherlock Bones series, illustrated by Louise Forshaw, and developed with a specialist STEAM consultant.
