Max Axiom, the supercharged scientist of series past, moves from the natural world into the realm of high-tech (mostly) in this graphic novel-style STEM-focused subset. In Scientists and in Engineers he puts together teams for, respectively, a science fair and a lunar colony by zipping from the International Space Station to the ocean's bottom for quick interviews with a range of STEM specialists. The other two volumes are more process oriented, following each stage in the design and construction of a super skateboard and a large recycling facility. Sidebars clarify and expand upon information presented in the narratives. Enhanced by their visual format, resource lists, and closing spreads containing historical background notes and additional information, these volumes offer stimulating glances at their topics-- School Library Journal, Series Made Simple
