Review

Any student with a passion for science and inventing is going to love this graphic novel for primary students.


Sally Tinkler is extremely smart and just loves to invent things! Her latest inventions revolve around a smartCHIP and nanobots, that will make her the smartest person to ever live.


However, her ideas do not always go to plan, and you know that when she says ‘Relax! It’s perfectly safe. When have any of my inventions ever gone wrong?’ that trouble will soon follow!


And trouble soon does, when Sally and her friend Charli, along with the other nanobots, find themselves inside Sally’s baby brother Joe! You just know that this is not going to be pleasant...


With themes of human body, design and technology, family, friends, and responsibility, this is a great fun read for students in Year 2 and up.
