Ada Marie Twist is constantly questioning how the world works. Her scientific experiments cause havoc at home and at school. Eventually, however, her family and school friends recognise Ada’s passionate curiosity and see it as something positive. Ada’s story is told with lots of humour, both in the text, which is in rhyming couplets, and in the illustrations.
