If you\u2019re here, then you most likely first read\u00a0The Mad Scientists\u2019 Club<\/em>\u00a0decades ago when you were a kid and probably got your paperback from Scholastic for a quarter. Now we\u2019re pleased to offer a brand new 50th Anniversary Edition of these wonderful, imaginative stories in hardcover. To make it reminiscent of the Scholastic edition (which most of us are more familiar with) we\u2019ve gone back to the original font which Scholastic used on the front cover.<\/p>\n

Also new for this edition is an introduction by Sheridan Brinley in which he describes the house his family lived in when his father wrote these stories, he also shares a picture with us of the room where his father had his office. We\u2019ve put the old intro to the 40th Anniversary Edition at the end of the book so you won\u2019t miss out on all those notes about the Mad Scientists\u2019 Club. We think you\u2019ll be pleased with this new collector\u2019s edition for the true Mad Scientists\u2019 Club fan!<\/p>\n

A strange sea monster appears on the lake\u2026a fortune is unearthed from an old cannon\u2026a valuable dinosaur egg is stolen. Watch out as the Mad Scientists turn Mammoth Falls upside down!<\/p>\n

Take seven, lively, \u201cnormal\u201d boys \u2014 one an inventive genius \u2014 give them a clubhouse for cooking up ideas, an electronics lab above the town hardware store, and a good supply of Army surplus equipment, and you, dear reader, have a boyhood dream come true and a situation that bears watching.<\/p>\n

In the hands of an author whose own work involved technological pioneering, the proceedings are well worth undivided attention, as the boys explore every conceivable possibility for high and happy adventure in the neighborhood of Mammoth Falls. To the unutterable confusion of the local dignitaries \u2014 and the unalloyed delight of Bertrand Brinley\u2019s fans \u2014 the young heroes not only outwit their insidious rival, Harmon Muldoon, but emerge as town heroes. Here, captured under one cover, are the fun-filled escapades of the young scientists whose exciting capers debuted in Boys\u2019 Life fifty years ago.<\/p>\n
