Nick and Tesla's Robot Army Rampage: A Mystery with Hoverbots, Bristlebots, and Other Robots You Can Build Yourself

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Scott Garrett. Science-minded sleuths Nick and Tesla are still with Uncle Newt while their parents (supposedly) research soybean irrigation techniques in Uzbekistan; these second and third capers up the ante with robotics and spy technology. The books' humor is both smart and silly, and the mysteries are surprisingly complex. Garrett illustrates tense scenes as well as instructions for the twins' experiments, which remain inventive yet simple. Review covers these titles: Nick and Tesla's Robot Army Rampage and NIck and Tesla's Secret Agent Battle.
