‘Mind-expanding and hilarious!’ Jeff Kinney, author of the bestselling DIARY OF A WIMPY KID series.

The second book in the hilarious series that makes you laugh-out-loud AND grows your brain. Perfect for readers age 8+ and fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The 13-Storey Treehouse.

Hi, I’m Oliver! Writing a book has made me kind of a celebrity around school – no big deal. But does that mean everything is perfect? No way!

I’m still trying to figure out the usual stuff: school cliques, weird family, and how to finally win the science fair. While I may know EVERYTHING about space, there’s a lot to learn about the planet we live on, like:

  • volcanic burps and bacteria farts
  • how the Earth’s layers are like boba tea
  • aliens! (Are we the aliens?)

From bestselling writer and robotics engineer Jorge Cham, Oliver’s Great Big Universe: Volcanoes Are Hot! is the second book in a STEM-themed, diary-style series.

Jorge Cham is the bestselling, Emmy-nominated creator of . . . many things: from the hit US TV show Elinor Wonders Why to the nonfiction book for adults called We Have No Idea, along with the podcast Daniel & Jorge Explain the Universe and the popular webcomic PHD Comics. He is, without a doubt, an expert on explaining things about the world in interesting and fun ways. He obtained his PhD in robotics from Stanford University and was an instructor and research associate at Caltech from 2003 to 2005. He is originally from Panama.
