Besides, Mo has the best idea to turn something small into something big. He just can’t forget his secret ingredient . . .</p><p>As the day of the Symposium arrives, readers will love discovering the scientific surprises behind the Sunnysill Elementary students’ projects, from lemon meringue pie to boogers.
