The third brilliant book in the Leonora Bolt - Secret Inventor series. Perfect for fans of Lemony Snicket's Violet Baudelaire and Rob Biddulph's Peanut Jones.

Book 3 in the Leonora Bolt - Secret Inventor series

Leonora Bolt makes amazing gadgets from any old junk. And her inventions have already stopped villainous Uncle Luther twice, though she hasn't rescued her super-scientist parents from him - yet.

Leonora and her pals find clues that lead them to Luther's latest evil plan. It's an amusement park called Brightworld built in a desert, under a massive snow globe - and it's terrible for the environment!

But when all their fancy-pants gadgets fail in the hot-hot heat, it's down to Leonora to use her eco-engineering imagination. Can she invent something to shut down Brightworld and save her parents - before there's a meltdown?

With nothing but courage and Leonora's trusty tool belt to hand, the gang must battle swirling sandstorms, navigate plunging canyons and finish Uncle Luther... FOR GOOD!

Violet Baudelaire meets Peanut Jones in this epic STEM-themed adventure about believing in your brainpower - and yourself.
