Here are a few common questions: What is the ideal age range? It's written at a fourth grade reading level, but there is word play and situational humor that middle schoolers have really enjoyed. The word count is just under 50,000 words and there are illustrations. So, it works well as a mid-level work. What's the message? There are a few themes in the book: the need for creativity and "maker" communities, the notion that heroes are often not the ones with the most "talent," and the idea that your weaknesses don't have to define your story.
