The most exciting road trip in history begins! In this action-packed, New York Times bestselling adventure, twelve-year-old twins Coke and Pepsi McDonald embark on a family vacation you'll have to read to believe.

Coke McDonald and his twin sister, Pepsi, think their family’s cross-country RV vacation is nothing to get excited about...until they’re chased off a cliff, locked in a burning school, and receive mysterious messages in codes and ciphers. From California to Wisconsin, it’s a race against time to find out who’s after Coke and Pep, who’s leaving the notes...and just what being a part of The Genius Files entails!

With the real-kid humor that has earned Dan Gutman millions of fans around the world, and featuring weird-but-true American tourist destinations, The Genius Files is a one-of-a-kind mix of geography and fun.

As Coke and Pep dodge nefarious villains from the Pez museum in California all the way to the Infinity Room in Wisconsin, black-and-white photographs and maps put young readers right into the action.

And don't miss the next leg of the journey in The Genius Files: Never Say Genius!

Product description

From the Back Cover

In eight days, Coke and Pepsi McDonald are going to turn thirteen.

Before then, they'll jump off a cliff, get trapped in the locked basement of their burning school, chased cross-country by murderous lunatics, left for dead in the pit of a sand dune, forced to decipher mysterious coded messages, thrown into a giant vat of SPAM, and visit the world's largest . . . ball of twine!

There's more, but if we told you here, we'd have to kill you.

Megapopular author Dan Gutman brings on the excitement with an action-packed new series that's nothing short of dynamite. Join Coke and Pep on their quest to uncover just what it means to be part of The Genius Files . . . if you dare!

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I was born in a log cabin in Illinois and used to write by candlelight with a piece of chalk on a shovel. Oh, wait a minute. That was Abraham Lincoln.

Actually, I’m a children's book author. I’ve written more than 170 books for kids from kindergarten up to middle school.

For the little ones, I write picture books like "Rappy the Raptor," about a rapping raptor named Rappy, who raps.

For beginning readers, I write "My Weird School," about some kids who go to a school in which all the grownups are crazy. Thirty-one million copies have been sold. I also write “Wait! WHAT?” a series of biographies that focus on the unusual aspects of people like Albert Einstein, Amelia Earhart, Muhammad Ali, and Teddy Roosevelt.

For middle-graders, I write the baseball card adventure series, about a boy who has the power to travel through time using a baseball card like a time machine. He goes on adventures with players like Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, and others.

For advanced readers, I write "The Genius Files," "Flashback Four,” “Houdini and Me” and others.

Okay not great.

Reviewed in Canada on 21 August 2019

I thought thise book was pretty repetitive and boring at times and it was unfortunate they felt the need to mention 9/11 in a children's book. I hope the other books are better.

Gut und lehrreich

Meine 12-jährige Tochter hat 2 Jahre an einer englischsprachigen Schule verbracht. Sie hat das Buch gerne gelesen und als kurzweilig befunden. Es ist gut, interessant und auch lehrreich geschrieben. Wir werden noch weitere Bücher aus dieser Reihe bestellen.

OK.. way too American for many!

Reviewed in Japan on 6 April 2018

Verified Purchase

Many great points, lots of vocab., not a bad idea making it interactive by using google maps to track "the twins". If you don't mind a bit of America is the most important place in the world type thinking, then this would be 5 stars for you.

Not appropriate for 9 year old

Reviewed in the United States on 24 May 2015

Verified Purchase

I was very disappointed with this book. My 9 year old read it and loved it. She started reading the second one and thought it was too scary. I just read this first one. The two kids get into a car with a stranger and are told not to tell their parents or police about what they are doing. They spend the entire book with adults trying to kill the kids and the kids possibly trying to kill the adults (in self defense). I found it really disturbing. All the while the parents were oblivious. September 9, 2011, the Donnor Party and other random kid inappropriate references were made. I really don't think it is appropriate for children at all.
