An extraordinary novel for anyone who's ever been curious. When Albie's mum dies, it's natural he should wonder where she's gone. His parents are both scientists and they usually have all the answers. Dad mutters something about Albie's mum being alive and with them in a parallel universe. So Albie finds a box, his mum's computer and a rotting banana, and sends himself through time and space to find her...

'Proves the theory that novels about science can be enormous fun. Give the man his own element on the periodic table of children's authors.' - The Times, Children's Book of the Week 'Heartwarming.' - The Guardian 'Moving, and exploding with scientific ideas and wonder.' - The Herald 'Edge offers an artful, touching exploration of grief. Albie s first person narrative, inflected with references to science and classic sci-fi, will be especially appealing to middle-grade fans of the genre.' - Booklist
