Vernon Bright is a scientific genius… and doesn't he know it! But when Bright's experiments go wrong, the result is often hair-raising, school-wrecking anarchy. Science has never been so hilarious!
As a bonus, each Vernon eBook also includes an interactive quiz to test your scientific knowledge!
Vernon Bright is a series of four illustrated eBooks, which follow the adventures of a boy genius and his mad-cap scientific experiments.
Vernon Bright and the Magentic Banana
Why is it that only a few metals are magnetic? Why not bananas? Or worms? Or Horace the Guinea Pig? When Vernon Bright's scientific investigations turn him into a living magnet, he's trashed by toasters and scragged by supermarket trolleys. John Watt wants to help – but bashing his new friend over the head with a cricket bat probably isn't going to work…
REVIEWERS SAY:
“… fantastic, exciting and funny… a hilarious read.”
Vernon Bright and Frankenstein's Hamster
When John Watt looks after the school hamster, Mister Nibbles ends up as something the cat's had. But when Vernon Bright finds Doctor Frankenstein's notebook, Mister Nibbles (with a few bits of rat, and gerbil, and guinea pig mixed in) comes back to life and John realizes that his troubles are only just beginning.
REVIEWERS SAY:
"Barlow and Skidmore…on sparkling form – a hugely entertaining read.”
Vernon Bright and the Faster-Than-Light Show
Having blown up the school orchestra, Vernon Bright turns his talents to videoing the drama department’s production of Julius Caesar. But John Watts’ ham-fisted rewiring turns the video gear into a device that can see into the future. Dodgy Dave is quick to see the financial possibilities… but then the Faster Than Light Show starts to predict disaster – even death – and the future doesn’t look so rosy after all.

"The two Steves (know) what their readers want and always deliver – in gigabytes.”
Vernon Bright and the End of the World
When PE teacher Mr Hardman challenges Vernon Bright to a weight lifting contest, brawn against brain, he has no idea what he's started. Bright can't make himself stronger, so he'll have to make the weights lighter – by inventing a machine to defy the force of gravity. And when the machine goes out of control – well, not to worry. It's not the end of the world. It's worse than that…
