Synopsis: 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?

Review: This is a fun and inspirational picture book. Geraldine is a daydreamer who wants to be an astronaut...or maybe an inventor. Or both. There's a science contest coming up and Geraldine wants to have the best project. The messaging in this book is great. I love seeing science-enthusiastic kids. I did want more science in this book, though. Realistic science. I give this picture book a 4/5.
