Twelve-year-old orphan Max Einstein (like Albert Einstein himself) is not your typical genius. Max hacks the computer system at NYU in order to attend college courses (even though she hates tests), builds homemade inventions to help the homeless, and plays speed chess in the park. Her not-so-normal life is crazy but predictable until...
Max is recruited by a mysterious organization! Their mission: solve some of the world's toughest problems using science. She's helped by a diverse group of young geniuses from around the globe as they invent new ways to power the farthest reaches of the planet. But that's only if the sinister outfit known only as The Corporation doesn't get to her first...
Max Einstein is a heroine for the modern age and will be looked up to by readers for generations to come.

Max Einstein is such a fun and clever girl! Our personalities were pretty similar and I am a big science and Albert Einstein fan too!!! The other kids were nice too even though I found their friendship kinda pushed, I dunno why... The benefactor was cool SpoilerI knew he was also a kid! And may I add that he seems neurodivergent to me, so does Max. The book was really pushing the idea of Max being special and that they want to change the world which was nice but kinda pushy... I mean what do the parents think of their kids wandering around by themselves? How can some adults work for kids? Why was The Corp after Max? Why it was never mentioned? Albert Einstein's quotes were cool but Max was being too much, I mean she said “Imagination is better than knowledge” like 15 times!!! And she did have knowledge too... I see the author was trying soo hard to make Max better than the other kids and smarter and more humane, but it was kinda odd... And why was the CMI in Israel? Like any other country in the world was in disposition? Israel is not stable nor that into changing the world for the better (not with the current situation anyways...) Anyways the idea was pretty original and the book was lovely! I would recommend it to sciency, nerdy, and other kids (and adults) who want to change the world for the better!
