Quick Summary

The classroom chaos, the icky experiments, and Hubie's surprise results keep pages turning while learning basic science concepts without even realizing it. If your kid loves the silly science of "The Magic School Bus" or gross-out humor like "Captain Underpants," they'll be obsessed with this slimy tale. Perfect for kids in kindergarten through third grade who love humor, science, and a little bit of the icky.
