Description
"Edutainment at its finest -- exciting, funny, and impossible to put down!" - Chris Riches, Daily Express
Ellie doesn't believe in magic, she believes in science.
But science is magic!
Science explains everything, right? But when Ellie's school burns down in roaring purple flames (wait, what?), her favourite teacher hands her wrist bracers that summon the elements (Bracers... Nitrogen!), and she's invited to join a secret society of the smartest minds on Earth (yikes!), suddenly not everything has an explanation after all!
Driven by logic, unshakeable stubbornness, and an unreasonable number of jam jars, Ellie is determined to prove that science can explain everything - no matter how strange things get. But can she?
Ellie Ment and the Material Matter is a STEM-based adventure where chemistry meets chaos, physics bends reality, and curiosity might just save the world.
