"Puzzles and conundrums abound in this graphic novel style cosmic caper that takes the STEAM education approach to interstellar heights."
Tim Collins’ Knutz and Boltz and the Cosmic Code — part of the STEAM Puzzle Adventure series that employs the forward-thinking STEAM approach of using science, technology, engineering, the arts and maths as a means of fostering critical thinking — is itself a brilliant blend of wacky space adventure, graphic novel and brain-boggling puzzles and challenges.
Featuring STEAM whizz-kid Knutz and his canine inventor companion, Boltz, this sees the daring duo blast off to a TOP SECRET space station on a mission to save the world from being blasted by a gigantic asteroid.
Throughout the high-octane, high-stakes race against time, readers become centred in Knutz and Boltz’s mission as they’re invited to solve puzzles that might just halt the imminent catastrophe. Add to that a rival team set on sabotaging their mission, and Louise Forshaw’s characterful illustrations, and Knutz and Boltz and the Cosmic Code amounts to a perfect package of entertainment and education (by stealth!).
