| Sixth-grader Simon Bloom can't believe his luck when he finds a book that enables him to control the laws of physics. By simply reciting the formulas it contains, he can cancel gravity to fly around his bedroom, or decrease friction so he can slide down the street as if he were on Rollerblades. When two thugs with evil intentions come after Simon, he must use the formulas to save himself and the book from falling into their hands. This funny, fast, and imaginative novel from first-time author Michael Reisman will appeal to fans of both fantasy and action-adventure.

In a fun and crazy story, Simon Bloom is able to learn the laws that govern physics (and teach others as well. He learns that in order to changes the laws, he must understand them. This was a great book and I will be using it next year in my physical science classes to reinforce the concepts that we are learning. If you or your child need a bit of help grasping concepts or just want some lighthearted reading, this is a great book to read.
My son needed this book for a school reading program. He enjoyed the book very much which is a hard task as my son does not enjoy reading most books.
