Perfect for emerging readers, it’s an irresistible mix of humour and heart.

Genius Kid Goes Viral
Created by the talented author-illustrator Waldo Pancake, also known as Jim Smith, this book is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud graphic novel that makes science both hilarious and accessible. Genius Kid Goes Viral follows the ever-curious Genius Kid and his best friend Flea as they dive into the world of viruses—whether it’s the digital kind that crashes computers, the internet kind that catapults people to overnight fame, or the sneezy, sniffly kind that has everyone reaching for tissues. With its vibrant illustrations and witty dialogue, the book masterfully blends comedy with real science, making complex topics easy to digest. Young readers will love the playful, energetic storytelling, while parents will appreciate how it sneaks in learning amid the fun. Ideal for budding scientists, tech enthusiasts, or anyone who enjoys a quirky, engaging read, this is a book that’s bound to go viral itself! £9.99 published by Faber.
