🌋 About the Book

Harold builds a volcano for the school science fair. Armed with too much baking soda and zero common sense, he creates an unforgettable disaster.

Harold Mitchell is nine years old, "all elbows and knees," and the undisputed king of last-minute ideas. When he realises his science project is due tomorrow, he decides to build the MEGA 3000—the most spectacularly disastrous project in Bondi Primary School history.

This is the story of what happens when you think you have "plenty of time," and the hilarious, messy reality of learning to own your mistakes.
