ABOUT
The Secret S.T.E.A.M. Society is made up of a group of students from different grade levels that come together with their good friend, Toot, who is an exchange student from another planet, to learn, teach and understand the world and the universe around us. In this second adventure, the students explore the science of music. From how our vocal chords and ears work to how how sound waves can affect the brain and how instruments are built, this is a must have for any young music lover. Music class will never be the same again! When the lead singer of the band loses her voice one week before the big show, the students of The London Academy of Ideas and Ingenuity must quickly find a replacement. Thankfully, Sebastian has the vocal pipes to rock the house. But there’s one problem: he doesn’t know anything about music! Will the kids be able to teach Sebastian about music and come together as a band before the big concert? With the diverse class of some of the smartest students on the planet, the kids surf on sound waves, skydive through time to learn the origins of music, shrink down to see how instruments are manufactured, and so much more! Readers who love music, history, science, and arts will jam out to this adventure.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
