Geraldine is an energetic, spirited second-grader with dreams of becoming an astronaut. She knows that she's clever and inventive, but can she create the winning entry in her class science contest? Armed with nothing but her strong will and the broken parts of her parents' old gadgets and gizmos, she sets out to invent an amazing contraption. Will her invention wow her classmates and transform her from class troublemaker to creative scientist?

Denise Muzzio was born in 1990 and spent her early childhood drawing and surrounded by books. When she grew up, she decided to study graphic design, illustration, and animation to keep that inner child alive. She is also a yoga teacher and lives in Rosario, Argentina, working as a freelance designer and illustrator specialising in children's literature.

Book Features:
  • Young readers will rally behind this ambitious second-grade girl who, with only her dreams and gizmos, has the power to change the world.
  • STEM-minded girls and boys will learn that science can be found in everyday objects, including discarded gadgets.
  • Geraldine, with her uncanny ability to challenge the status quo, leads the way for kids to believe in themselves, try new things, and follow their dreams.

Industry Reviews
The story succeeds as an underdog saves-the-day text to inspire young readers. -- Youth Services Book Review (Starred review)
The story inspires kids to think out of the box, shows that science is anything but boring, and, perhaps, will have them wanting to invent something themselves. -- Bookworm for Kids
This is a great story to introduce imagination, creation, and science. The colors used on the cover and inside pages are eye-catching and should pull little ones into the pages. If used to introduce the aspect of inventing and creating, and if you examine the various creations that the children make, it can be a very effective teaching tool. Also, a good book to open the topic of creativity and imagination.? -- Pick a Good Book
nbsp;Geraldine is a spunky second-grade student who loves science but sometimes has a hard time paying attention in class. When her teacher announces the science contest, she's determined to take the prize. With lots of hard work, a pile of everyday stuff, and tons of confidence (she doesn't let her fellow students' whispers get her down), Geraldine creates something truly amazing. A great story for kids who like to dream. -- Tiny Beans, The Best 100+ New Books of 2020, According to Our Kids
