Bookroo's summary

Franny, a young mad scientist, is on a mission to awaken her classmates' inner scientists. Armed with a two-headed robot and an invisibility potion, her experiment spirals out of control. As chaos ensues with a malfunctioning robot and uninformed peers, Franny must navigate the mayhem. Can she turn this scientific disaster into a learning opportunity, or will her classroom become a mad science catastrophe? Discover the unexpected twists in Franny's most challenging experiment yet.

From the publisher

Goosebumps and Bill Nye the Science Guy fans, meet Franny! There’s nothing better than being a mad scientist–at least according to Franny. So she’s making it her mission to help her classmates discover their own inner mad scientists. All Franny needs for her latest experiment is a few volunteers, a half-completed two-headed robot, and an invisibility potion. Only this experiment just might prove to be Franny’s most difficult. Because what do you do when your classmates don’t know anything about mad science–and there’s a doubly dumb robot running amok to prove it?
