(Strategic Book Publishing, June 7, 2011)
In the fourth book of the fun and educational children's series, Ein Stein: The Chipmunk Who Succeeds by Brain Power, Ein is in love. Her name is Gertrude, not a very romantic name, but nevertheless, Ein thinks she is the most beautiful girl he has ever seen. Sad to say, Ein finds she already has a boyfriend name Bozo. And he is BIG, with muscles bulging everywhere. To compete for her favour, Ein must rely on his brains and simple machines. When Gertrude wants a tree stump lifted, Bozo is not strong enough but, with an inclined plane, Ein and Bozo are able to do it together. When a large branch falls on Gertrude's home, Bozo is unable to lift it but, with a lever, Ein and Bozo remove it. Later, Ein and Bozo are able to construct a roof for Gertrude using homemade pulleys. Unfortunately, at dinner, Ein hits Bozo in the nose with a pea when demonstrating a catapult. Find out Bozo's reaction and who will be successful in the courtship of Gertrude! Instructions for making a catapult with Popsicle sticks are included. Andrew Graham Frame is a retired chemical engineer who encourages young people to explore science careers. He grew up in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, has two daughters, Sharon, a teacher/librarian, and Terri, a personal trainer. He now lives in Sarnia, Ontario, with his wife, Bernice.
