With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, The DATA Set chapter books are perfect for emerging readers.

Author Notes

Ada Hopper has been extremely inventive ever since she was little. There was nothing that a rubber band and some tweezers couldn't fix, no question that couldn't be answered by scouring the library, and no way she wasn't escaping over that backyard fence! Ada loves reading and writing because of all the fantastical worlds a good book can bring you to. When not working, Ada enjoys karaoke, spending time with her family, and going on the occasional adventure or two.

Sam Ricks grew up creating stories about toxic fruitcakes and peanut butter-snatching aliens. He is the illustrator of several books for young readers, including The DATA Set series. Sam earned his BA from Brigham Young University and his MA from the University of Baltimore. He is a founding member of Cotopaxi: Gear For Good. He, his wife, and their five children live in Salt Lake City, Utah. Visit Sam at SamRicks.com.

Horn Book Review

The DATA Set--second graders Gabe, Laura, and Cesar, with new team member Olive--return for three more science-filled adventures. Under the tutelage of bumbling Dr. Bunsen, the kids invent an alien communication device, battle robots overtaking their school, and deal with pesky clones. The lighthearted stories contain genuine science and technology interwoven with loopy characters and silly hijinks. Black-and-white illustrations are included. [Review covers the following DATA Set titles: A Case of the Clones, Robots Rule the School, and The Sky Is Falling.] (c) Copyright 2017.
