Megan and classmate Charlotte have entered a project in the middle school science fair-but will it all go smoothly?Megan just experienced a school talent show in all its various wonders and horrors in the series opener, What Happens Next?: Talent Show Troubles (2023). Now readers get to make choices to guide her through Sunbright Middle School's science and invention fair. The opening premise seems straightforward enough, but vice principal Mr. Fisher is looking for Megan, and readers need to decide: Should she stay and see what he wants or hide and try to meet Charlotte at their table? The adventures and mishaps begin. Using the choose-your-own-adventure format, readers can repeat opening steps, then make different choices to see how it affects the outcome. The book offers over 100 paths, but there are around 25 distinct endings, so they can end up with the same outcome via different routes. The different scenarios include experiencing an exciting crush, being suspended from school, enduring an attack by gulls, and having an alien encounter. Panels of art in vibrant colors and varied fonts exaggerate the action, sustaining readers' interest. An appendix offers instructions for drawing a couple of the characters. Most main characters read White; one classmate has brown skin and black "springy hair."Zany and true to middle schoolers' emotional experiences. (Graphic fiction. 8-12)
