    Based on a Mad Scientists' Club story by Bertrand Brinley

It first appeared as a short story in a 1961 issue of Boys' Life. The seven boys of the Mad Scientists club confound the inhabitants of Mammoth Falls by secretly building a remote control Sea Monster which they set loose on Strawberry Lake in the evenings. The book is comprised of 6 more of their zany adventures!
