Who Wrote It?

Christopher Edge is an award-winning children’s author whose books have been translated into more than twenty languages.

Christopher grew up in Manchester where he spent most of his childhood in the local library, dreaming up stories. After studying English at university, he worked in a record shop, mostly listening to Björk, before being led astray by the film Dead Poets Society into a short-lived career as an English teacher. After leaving teaching he worked in publishing in a job that allowed him to read lots of brilliant children’s books, and in 2007 went freelance as a publishing and education consultant, working with organisations such as Booktrust and Oxford University Press on resources to inspire children as readers and writers.

What's It About?

How do you know you really exist? It’s Maisie’s birthday and she can’t wait to open her presents. She’s hoping for the things she needs to build her own nuclear reactor. But she wakes to an empty house and outside the front door is nothing but a terrifying, all-consuming blackness. Trapped in an ever-shifting reality, Maisie knows that she will have to use the laws of the universe and the love of her family to survive. And even that might not be enough… A mind-bending mystery for anyone who’s ever asked questions. From the author of The Many Worlds of Albie Bright and The Jamie Drake Equation.

Fact File

Christopher has appeared at many literary festivals including the Hay Festival, Edinburgh International Book Festival, Emirates Festival of Literature, and Cheltenham Literature Festival and was also invited to give the keynote speech at the NATE (National Association for the Teaching of English) conference. He has also authored articles on reading and education for publications such as The Guardian and Teach Primary magazine.

Your Reviews

Ella from Methley Primary School:

This book was incredible - I loved reading it. I would recommend it to any one because it suits any styles of reading. Maisie (the main characters) uses her knowledge of science to save her family. There are no faults to this book. I love the fact it doesn't drag on and is straight to the point. For all these reasons I would rate it a 5.

A very complicated and clever book. If you keep on reading then you'll find it all makes sense in the end. It has just the right amount of mystery to keep the reader reading.

Olivia from Methley Primary School:

The Infinite Lives Of Maisy Day was a fascinating read.I thoroughly enjoyed this book I found the book very interesting;I learnt quite a lot of scientific facts.I felt like I was in a science museum learning new stuff from every page.I like how the author,Christopher Edge, used real life scientific facts.I found out they were real as when a fact appeared I would research it up on my iPad.I would recommend this book to children who like mystery stories

Faisal from Bracken edge primary school:

I've liked this book because it's really intriguing and weird at the same time and when I saw the options my eyes directed at that book only.

Faisal gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The Chocolate Factory Ghost by David O'Connell.

Ellie Rae from Beeston Primary School:

To be fair,I did not like this book. It was very confusing and a little boring at some points. I didn't like the fact that he portrayed the children in an unrealistic manner. Especially with the main character Maisie she was very intelligent yet was displayed very poorly in subjects such as growing up e.g she thought that her understanding of the world would hugely expand when she suddenly turns 10. Although I did like the fact that he was trying to get the message through to children that science can be very interesting and fun.

Ellie Rae gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 2 out of 5 and now plans to read Brightstorm by Vashti Hardy.

Esther from Beeston Primary School:

I found this book confusing and the plot was boring. I did not like Maisy because - although she was academically gifted - she had little common sense.

Horia from Alwoodley primary school :

This book was very unique and I enjoyed reading it . At Parts of the story I was confused but as soon as I thought it out it made sense .

Horia gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read Brightstorm by Vashti Hardy.

Guste from Carlton Primary School:

This book was really good because of all the real science facts.It also gave a full background of the two sisters and their friendship. I gave it a 4 not 5 for I think the author could have made the end a bit clearer. All in all, this book was FANTASTIC!!! I would recommend this book to anyone who liked science.

Guste gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The Chocolate Factory Ghost by David O'Connell.

Milan from Greenside Primary School:

I liked this book because of the interesting anomalies, science (REAL SCIENCE) facts and even just the story alone. Unfortunatly, I found the ending a bit clishe.

Henna from Co-op Academy Oakwood:

I really liked this book it was amazing. I liked it because it was very interesting and unique.

Henna gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 5 out of 5 and now plans to read Brightstorm by Vashti Hardy.

KO from Kirkstall Valley Primary School:

I thought this book was very unique because of how the plot was always changing between the real world the simulated reality. I was however quite confused until it all joined up at the end and made sense. The only other thing I would comment on is that it could have been a bit longer seeing as i read it all in 1 night. I do appreciate all the work and effort that has gone into writing any book as I'm sure it must take a long time to come up with such original ideas.

KO gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 3 out of 5 and now plans to read The House with Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson.

Hannah gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant.

Rosie from Shire Oak Primary School:

I quite liked this book although it was a little confusing and for me it wasn't long enough to get properly into although it was a good idea to alternate the chapters with two different versions of Maisie's birthday. My favorite part was when it's all explained.

Rosie gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 3 out of 5 and now plans to read Brightstorm by Vashti Hardy.

Isabel from Beeston Primary School:

I found the first couple of chapters were slow and nothing interesting happened. Also the genre is unclear and you may need to add a glossary at the back. I wouldn't recommend this book as it is very unclear. The ending is very unusual and could do with some explaining.

Isabel gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 3 out of 5 and now plans to read The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant.

Sara from Beeston Primary School:

I didn't like this book because it was very slow to get into the problem. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy science books because it talks about science quite a lot throughout the book.

Sara gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 1 out of 5 and now plans to read The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant.

Matthew from Oulton Primary:

I thought this book was very confusing because it kept changing the perspective of Maisie throughout different chapters.The book was getting a bit boring in the middle.It only got interesting toward the end.

Matthew gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 2 out of 5 and now plans to read Brightstorm by Vashti Hardy.

Praneel Devesh from Raynville Primary School:

I didn't really like this book because it had very complicated language and it was extremely confusing. I would recommend this book for people who are really interested in science and fantasy.

Kayla from Rothwell Victoria Junior School:

This was not my kind of story as it went in and out of virtual reality and I found it a little bit confusing. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy science.

Dylan from Holy Family Catholic Primary School:

This is about a girl who is called Maise Day.She has an older sister called Lily that she doesn’t have a good relationship with. She is trapped in an ever-shifting universe.

It was a slow burner it wasn’t the best book. I only enjoyed the scientific bit.

I’d recommend it to whom ever loves science. I don’t want to read the other books because I didn’t enjoy it enough.

This is a book about a girl called Maisie who has an older sister called lily . Maisie wakes up one morning on her birthday. Then the whole world starts closing in on her and things go black

I loved this book because you can understand everything that happens. Also , I love this book because my name is lily and I have a little sister . The only thing I didn’t like was that it was about too scientific for me .

Altogether, I found this book really interesting. I would recommend this book 8 and above. I would love to read more books in the series.

Annie from Collingham Lady Elizabeth Hastings Primary School :

I think this book was awesome and I would recommend it to anyone interested in science or learning new things. My favourites are Lily and Maisie because Maisie would help her sister even if she thinks she hates her, I like how she tries to make sense of things with science. I like Lily because she may seem mean at first but she comes through and is really nice. I think this book was a major success, there was only one bad thing about it, I didn’t really think it made sense about what world the black one is. I loved this book because I am really interested in how the world works and how it came to be here.

Annie gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The House with Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson.

Amelia from Pool C of E Primary School:

I enjoyed the book but I found that there were to many flashbacks and scientific info. these started to get more boring as the book went on. after I read on I started to skip them.

Ava from Bramley st peters:

I liked the book but it was very confusing,like one chapter it was her birthday and the next chapter she was in an alternate universe were there was nothing.otherwise it was a good book and very scientific.

A spine-chilling story with excellent descriptions.I love the way it makes you want to read for ever. I really enjoyed it and thought it was very exciting, so exciting that I felt like I had to read on until I finished.

Isabelle from Carlton primary school:

I really enjoyed this book with all the description and action in the story!!! Although i didn't really understand the setting and some scenes! I loved how it was set in 1st person. I felt like i was properly in the house! I could definitely relate to the house layout! I hope you buy this book :) Have a good day!!!

Isabelle gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant.

nico from alwoodley primary school:

I thought it was an astoundingly clever yet complexed book. It was very clever how maisie is in parallel universes and at the end it all seems finished and it just confuses you even more. some of the vocabulary is challenging.

is very astoundin

nico gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 5 out of 5 and now plans to read The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant.

Mia from Methley Primary School :

This book was AMAZING; it left me wondering after every chapter! It was filled to the brim with interesting facts about the universe. Christopher Edge ,who is the author of the book,has structured it very well as you can definitely tell why Maisie's lives were infinite. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes science and likes learning about the universe; I would rate this book a 5 out of 5 as it is unputdownable!

Mia gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 5 out of 5 and now plans to read Dragon Daughter by Liz Flanagan.

Morgan from Summerfield primary school:

Amazing, although for some people the words are too significantly big for 9 to 11 year olds , although i am like Maisie i LOVE science so this was the perfect read for me. But i did find the switch of dimensions a little confusing but at the end it all came clear. I especially love the part were the front links to the end i think this was just the cherry on the cake.

The end was the best... literally

Nora from Kirkstall St Stephen's:

I thought it was really interesting and it got me really excited because everything happened so suddenly and unexpectedly.At first i was a bit confused about what was going on. My favourite character was probably Lily because at first you kind of get the wrong idea about her and then she turned out to be a really nice sister!

Nora gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The Children of Castle Rock by Natasha Farrant.

Rachel from Whinmoor st pauls:

I liked this but I will say it did confuse me too much as it flipped from 2 stories I didn't quite get it at first but I did manage to understand it eventually. Now I am exited to read the next chapter or page in this book I hope you will write more books in future.

Rachel gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The House with Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson.

Holly from Methley primary school:

This short, scientific book is certainly interesting to read as it uses a lot of high level vocabulary and each chapter is based on a different side of Maisie’s life. I would recommend this book for the scientific kind but even if you don’t enjoy science then I’m sure you will still really enjoy it. This book is great for learning about black holes, atoms, the Big Bang and even more mind-blowing facts!

Holly gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 4 out of 5 and now plans to read The House with Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson.

Reece from Raynville Primary School:

This is a great book by Christopher Edge. I like mystery books that have a happy ending. If you liked this thrilling book then you'll love reading Brightstorm.

Finlay from Holy Family catholic Primary school:

This book is about a girl called Maisie who has an older sister named Lily.She wakes up on her birthday and everyone disappeared and the world is closing in on her.

I liked Maisies characteristics because she loves science and so do I.The book gripped me and it nearly made me cry because of a certain event involving something very upsetting.I did not dislike anything about this book other than there been a lot of scientific language.

I would recommend this book to 8 year olds and above[year 3 and above]because there is a lot of scientific language.I would love to read the other books in the series.Over allI would give this book a 5\5 because of the amazing adventure.

Marykate from Holy Family catholic primary school:

This book is about a girl called Maise who has a older sister called Lilly who has a bad relationship with Maise.She wakes up on her birthday and the world is black.

I loved this book because Maise was very clever and I liked the relationship between Lilly and Maise also I know how Lilly and Maise feel because I have older and younger siblings.I didn’t like how many scientific words was in the book but I could picture the book in my mind. I would recommend it to 9-and upwards because of the scientific words but apart from that it was a very good book I would also recommend it to people who like science .

Emilia from Holy Family Catholic Primary school:

This is a book about a girl called Maisie who has a sister called Lily who she doesn't get on with.One day,she wakes up on her birthday and when she opens the door there is a never-ending black space.

I liked that Lily and Maisie got on later in the book.I disliked that this book was too sciencey for me and I'm not into science book. I was sad at a certain part in the book near the ending when something sad happened.

I would recommend this to people who like science books.I think this is a book for older and younger people.

Ruby from Alwoodley Primary School:

This book was outstanding!It had so much scientific vocabulary but was a very confusing book to understand,I liked the twist at the end and how it was so sudden.This is now one of my favourite books I have read simply because it was confusing and muddled but my genre of book! Over all it was fantastic and scientific! Also at begging it was so good to see that Maisie became so confident with herself!

Ruby gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 5 out of 5 and now plans to read Dragon Daughter by Liz Flanagan.

layla from St Benedict catholic primary :

Hannah from Alwoodley Primary School:

Really confusing. It was really hard to understand. If you like science fiction, you would probably enjoy it more. It was like two stories told in one book. It just wasn't for me.

Hannah gave The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day 5 out of 5 and now plans to read Brightstorm by Vashti Hardy.

Victory from Alwoodley Primary School:

I absolutely love this book. I love how much it explains and how smart Maisie is. I also enjoyed how near the beginning and near the end she has changed and become more confident with herself. I recommend this book for people who love physics (science) and people who enjoy mystery and have patience to put up with the book.

megan from West End Primary School:

no offence but im just going to be honest this book was an absolute disappointment i didnt enjoy it at all but if you like sience fiction you might enjoy it i think its really confusing because two stories are sort of going on at the same time and it didnt grip me at all.

Ameera from Harehills Primary school:

Rhian from Oulton Primary School:

It's about a 10 year old girl and what happens on her 10th birthday.I found it confusing because 2 parallel stories were going on. I found it hard to understand and I think older readers would enjoy it more it was hard to believe because Maisie was only 10 but studying for a degree. I enjoyed it when I knew what was going on I could picture the bit when Maisie went to the shops with her sister and would recommend this book to people who are interested in science and fantasy.

Joe from Collingham LEH:

I really admired The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day the chapters 1,3,5,7,9,11,13 and 15 were all jaw dropping chapters, you would never know if the darkness would chatch Maisie or if the universe is infinite like everyone believes. If I grow up to become an author I hope to publish a book as amazing as this one 100000 out of 100000!

Daisy from Otley All Saints CE Primary School :

I thought this book was SUPER interesting!The idea of switching between two 'worlds' every chapter was quite confusing but it kept it flowing... But a bit of a downside to it was the science bits. As the main character loves maths/science some bits were quite confusing, he tries to explain them but it was still hard to picture it and understand. But uther than that i LOVED it! the unexpected twist was incredible! I never cry and i nearly did!

Simrit from Alwoodley Primary School:

This book was very interesting and I love how the ending had an unexpected twist. The only issue was that it was slightly confusing when the universes kept swapping.

I thought this book was great although I got a little confused at the start. Apart from that, it was great and left small clues throughout the story to eventually reveal the end. This book has all sorts of emotions which lead from confusion to guilt to relief. I would definitely recommend this book to science-fiction lovers but also people who like mystery and problems.

Payton from Churwell Primary School:

I enjoyed the amazing book "The Infinite Lives Of Maisie Day" By Christiphor Edge because Maisie has to find out what is real. I saw something in the back of the book and I didn't understand what they where however, when I read the whole book I understood what they meant. Just a tip: Don't skip the amazing chapters printed in these delicate pages. =)

This book was a roller coaster ride in disguise.What one thought to be a causal adventure book,then turned out to a huge mystery filled with science and suspense.Every word kept me gripped with thoughts of happiness and sadness at the same time as Maisie explores a mysterious realm.

Hassan from Beeston Primary School:

This was the worst book I have ever read. It was very slow and not my type. I did not even know what genre it is. There was a bit too much scientific words and may have needed a glossary. The idea for the book was good but it lacked in action.

Falak from Meadowfield Primary School:

I recommend this book for anyone who is very scientific or is in love with science. I didn't understand what a lot of the words meant because I am not very interested in science. It confuses me by switching from one part of the story to another and I personally think it just goes on about the same thing a lot of the time. If I did understand everything it would probably be better but I rate this book as a three out of five.

I really enjoyed reading this book! I love how it has lots of scientific words.

My favourite part is when Maisie and her big sister don't get along at first but later in the story the gradually begin to trust and love each other more and more again.

This book was outstanding;it managed to grip me so I couldn’t put the book down.It was full of cliff hangers that urged me to keep on reading.The book is about a girl named Maisie and it is her 10th birthday.Her life keeps alternating between chapters:one of her lives is normal whereas her other life is where impossible things keep happening.We later discover why this happens further on in the book.From this book,I have learnt a few new things about the world.I would recommend this book to people who like science and can handle many things at once.I could really tell why the author gave this book its title-it was very clear in the texts.I definitely rate this book a 5/5!

This is am amazing book full with cliff hangers that urge you to keep on reading. The book is about a girl called Maisie and it's her Birthday. There are 2 stories going on at once and they alternate between the chapters. One story is about what happens on her birthday and the other one is about an impossible universe which you discover what it really is later on in the book.

I think that this book is for someone who likes cliff hangers and is able to remember 2 story lines at once.

This book is one of the favourite books I have ever read! The book is so mysterious!
