Lucy Hawking

Con La clave secreta del Universo el genial Stephen Hawking y su hija Lucy han conseguido acercar a los pequeños -y no tan pequeños- las maravillas y los secretos del Universo, y demostrarnos que la ciencia tambien puede ser divertida y apasionante. A George nada le gusta mas en el mundo que mirar las estrellas; tambien le encantaria tener un ordenador con el que navegar y conocer mas sobre el Universo, pero sabe que eso es mision imposible. En casa, sus padres son tan ecologistas que no quieren ni oir hablar del progreso y la ciencia. Pero lo que ellos no saben es que el enemigo esta muy cerca. Acaba de llegar un nuevo vecino que, ¡horror!, es un eminente cientifico, y eso, para los padres de George, solo significa una cosa: peligro. Si hubieran imaginado lo que le esperaba a su hijo, nunca le habrian dejado entrar en su casa...Reseña:Se juntan el asombro de un niño con la agudeza intelectual de un genio.The Sunday Times

El mayor experimento cientifico de la Historia esta en marcha, ¡y George y Annie lo veran desde primera fila! En esta novela los lectores acompañaran a Eric, el padre de Annie, que esta trabajando en el Centro Europeo de Investigaciones Nucleares, a Suiza. Alli se encuentra el gran colisionador de particulas, capaz de explorar los primeros instantes del universo: el Big Bang. Cientificos de todo el mundo llevan años trabajando en el proyecto y nada puede salir mal, ¡hasta que George y Annie descubren que hay un plan secreto para sabotearlo! ¿Llegaran a tiempo para impedirlo?La critica ha dicho: Una aventura cosmica que mezcla una gran historia de aventuras con ciencia para niños.The Daily Mail

We are going', said Annie, 'on a great cosmic journey. So listen up, Savers of Planet Earth, and prepare to meet the Universe'. George's best friend Annie needs help. Her scientist father, Eric, is working on a space project - and it's all going wrong. A robot has landed on Mars, but is behaving very oddly. And now Annie has discovered something weird on her dad's super-computer. Is it a message from an alien? Could there be life out there? How do you find a planet in outer space? And if you could talk to aliens, what would you say?

A successful London banker appears to have it all until he flees his high-priced apartment in the middle of the night, wearing only pajamas and claiming his life is in danger. His four best friends set out to discover whether their friend has had a breakdown or if, in fact, someone is after him.
