The Schernoff Discoveries by Gary Paulsen

The Schernoff Discoveries by Gary Paulsen

Harold Schernoff, fourteen-year-old science whiz and social outcast, has a theory to solve every problem, from dating to dealing with bullies, to making money, to playing sports, to buying a car when you re underage. Want to learn to ski? Try: Mass x acceleration x slope of hill = EAGH Here s another surefire formula: Golf balls + car = BANG Science turns slapstick when Harold and his buddy team up to test Schernoff s Discoveries. Only Harold could mastermind such a disastrous first date. Only Harold could go fishing and get caught by the fish. And only Gary Paulsen, one of today s most popular authors for young people, could write such a wonderfully funny novel about friendship.
