Frank Einstein and the Electro Finger

Publisher: Abrams Books

Science genius, Frank Einstein, and his long-suffering friend, Watson, embark on another adventurous investigation, accompanied by trusty techno-assistants Klink and Klank. This time it's all about energy!  Frank's discovered how to transform one of Nikola Tesla's inventions into the miraculous Electro Finger, which will provide Midville with free wireless and solar power. 

Frank's arch-rival, T. Edison has other ideas!  He and dastardly accomplice, Mr Chimp, want control of Midville's power supplies all to themselves!  And - with our heroes trapped on a raft, heading inexorably into the spinning blades of T.Edison's hydro-electric turbines - they realise Edison and Mr Chimp mean serious business…

Science facts, illustrated by wittily accurate graphs, diagrams and maps intertwine with good-guys versus bad-guys roller-coaster action in this inventive, entertaining, educative series.
