Fun story, but the writing was uneven and the dialogue felt inauthentic.

This is a fairly typical mystery-kids style book, just replace "mystery" with "science shenanigans." They invent a machine that makes candy anthropomorphic, something of course goes wrong, hijinks ensue! It's cute and cast is diverse, but the highlight for me was the mini comics in the back. I think more of the kids' personalities come across in the minis and Daley + Crafts are great with punchlines. Reading the minis first might've helped me enjoy the main story more.
