Having
lost the Pearl to the evil Cult of Wardenclyffe, Olivia must face life without
the most powerful device in the universe. Pursued by the paparazzi in their
quest to get the true story of the Bear Girl, she must learn to trust and rely
on other people if she is going to rescue her brother Gnat and best friend Doug
who are lost in ancient Florida; never mind finding her missing parents or
ending the environmental catastrophe she caused.
Hospitalized
with mysterious pains, Olivia meets Nigerian-born Abiona, a math-whiz with a
deep secret. Together with fun-loving Terrilyne, they decide to release the
Bobwhite witch from her frozen tomb in the hopes she can restore everyone’s
lives back to normal. What they unleash is beyond anything they could have
imagined. Confronted by the true power of the Pearl, Olivia must make a choice
that will alter the direction of the earth and her future.

“Aristotle’s Lantern is such a great addition to the series
and an amazing book for young readers.
As a young reader myself, it’s a struggle finding appropriate books that
also challenge my reading. This book is
all of those things and more. It is
brimming with adventure and a little bit of mystery to keep readers on their
toes. Olivia is such a fierce and
lovable character. I love seeing how her
mind works and how she faces all the challenges that are thrown at her, Hoolie,
and friends.” -- Sophia Papadakos, grade
7
“I could relate to so many things Olivia felt. You wrote an
amazing book and I think the world should get the chance to read it.” – Helen,

“I will be using this book in my classroom to integrate
Language Arts skills and science teaching. The students will use this book as a
starting point for writing research papers, poetry, and oral presentations.” –
