About the Book

A middle-schooler hacks her school's A.I. chatbot to crack the popularity code - what could go wrong...? Only everything. This is a funny, fresh graphic-novel series launch from an Emmy-winning creator.

Book Synopsis

"All the fun, tech, and cringe that kids will love." --Terri Libenson, New York Times bestselling author of the Emmie & Friends series

Polly Maxwell - aka "Galaxy Brain" - is excited to start at a new STEM middle school. There she knows she'll finally fit in and live her best nerd life.

But it turns out that even among nerds there is a social hierarchy. Polly finds herself with a group of random outsiders, while her former best friend Henna sits at the cool kids' table. What's a desperate young inventor to do?

Hack the school's A.I. chatbot to crack the secrets of popularity, of course!

What could possibly go wrong...?

Galaxy Brain combines evergreen middle-school themes with a STEM twist, about the limitations of A.I. and the power of human creativity and true friendship.

Review Quotes

"Galaxy Brain masterfully and hilariously weaves themes of popularity, friendship, and digital madness into a VERY human tale. All the fun, tech, and cringe that kids will love." --Terri Libenson, New York Times bestselling author of the Emmie & Friends series
