Nick and Tesla are bright 11-year-old siblings with a knack for science, electronics, and getting into trouble. When their parents mysteriously vanish, they’re sent to live with their Uncle Newt, a brilliant inventor who engineers top-secret gadgets for a classified government agency. It’s not long before Nick and Tesla are embarking on adventures of their own—engineering all kinds of outrageous MacGyverish contraptions to save their skin: 9-volt burglar alarms, electromagnets, mobile tracking devices, and more. Readers are invited to join in the fun as each story contains instructions and blueprints for five different projects.
In Nick and Tesla’s High-Voltage Danger Lab, we meet the characters and learn how to make everything from rocket launchers to soda-powered vehicles. Learning about science has never been so dangerous—or so much fun!

This book is like the rest: AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i check out some of these and this one looks awsome
This book was very different than any other book I have read! I thought the plot was very interesting! The main characters were really cool and fun to read about!
This is a good book. It talks about Nick, the boy, and his sister, Tesla. They are geniuses, always making stuff from normal household tools to complete tasks, or "missions". There are even some directions inside to help you build your own mechanisms! It is a great read.
Nick and Tesla are living with their scientist uncle. They act as spies in there town using many inventions to solve the stuff adults don' take seriously. the book also includes instruction for your own inventions.
this was a cool book. i enjoyed have all the experiments/inventions in the book and it was a very clever story and i would suggest reading it for education and a good time
This was a great book! It is about siblings who are sent to live with their Uncle who is an inventor, and go on a splendid adventure. There are also some cool projects in the book for you to try out.
I love the Nick and Tesla series, because they always include something that you can do yourself. This book is full of fun science and action! In this story, Nick and Tesla, two 11-year old siblings, are given over to their Uncle Newt, when their parents suddenly vanish. Uncle Newt is an inventor, and invents tons of different tools and gadgets (top-secret of course!!). Soon, Nick and Tesla started to make inventions of their own, and of course, the book also comes with step-by-step instructions on how to build different gadgets as well! For me, this book is one of the most fun ways to learn science!
After their parents mysteriously vanish, Tesla and Nick start a life with Uncle Newt where they work with science as a part of their adventure.
