Synopsis

Lost in a fantasy world, Nikki has only logic and science to help her find her way home.

After losing the Wisconsin State Debate Championship Nikki Murrow hides in a closet, only to find two imps there from the Realm of Reason. They have traveled to her school to find a scholar who will save their realm from the dark forces of superstition and ignorance. The imps decide that Nikki is the scholar who will save them.

The Logic to the Rescue series is designed to teach kids critical thinking. A combination of fiction and non-fiction, it weaves examples of logical fallacies into a fictional sword-and-sorcery fantasy. Simple examples for testing a hypothesis and setting up experiments in chemistry, physics, and biology are integrated into the plot. Though not a textbook, the Logic to the Rescue series can be a useful addition to a home library for kids ages 10 to 14. The series is designed to kick-start kids' interest in logic, critical thinking, and science through the use of an engrossing story.

The Prince of Physics is the second book in the series.
