George and the Invincible Code

Action, humor and loads of fascinating facts about space from Lucy Hawking and the great theoretical physicist and cosmologist Stephen Hawking! George and his best friend Annie are long overdue for space travel and it's something they miss. But not for long... Suddenly very strange and very serious things start to happen: banks hand out money and airlines give out free tickets, while supermarket checkouts don't work and people take what they want without paying. It seems that all the world's most powerful computing systems have been hacked. George and Annie will travel farther than ever into space to find out what - or who - is behind it. The first two books in the series were included in the Elniplex Gold Lists of the top children's books of the year! The story is interspersed with inserts written in a pleasant and understandable way especially for children by Stephen Hawking and distinguished scientists. Includes QR code with NASA photos!
