Hekyll and Snyde

Michelle L. Brown

In this high-interest accessible novel for middle grade readers, a seventh-grade science whiz supersizes himself to save his dad's job. However, his experiment leads to an out-of-control alter ego who may ruin everything. Lewis Hekyll has big plans to fight world hunger with his S.P.R.O.U.T. plant food formula. But first, the seventh-grade science whiz needs to save his dad's job as the high school basketball coach. In this tiny town, basketball is the name of the game, and the season is off to a bad start. When Lew sees proof that his S.P.R.O.U.T. formula works, he comes up with the colossal idea to supersize himself. Without waiting to observe the long-term effects, Lew secretly drinks the formula. If his plan works, he'll be able to save the basketball season, his dad's job, and the world. While the experiment is a success, Lew's new alter ego looms a little too large. But he forges ahead, developing a basketball persona named Jimmy Snyde. Combining Snyde's size with his own physics knowledge, Lew creates an on-court ?miracle kid.? Unfortunately, the off-court monster Lew is becoming may ruin everything. Characterized by exciting, fast-paced plots and age-appropriate themes, Harbor's Hi-Lo books are both engaging and easy to read. Short chapters, simple sentence structures, and an accessible format make these books perfect for tween reluctant readers. AGES: 10 to 14 AUTHOR: Michelle L. Brown writes from her home in Southern Kansas, where she lives with her husband, Bob, their big family, and many furry and feathered pets, including a pink-toed tarantula named Tillie! Michelle and Bob enjoy doing theater together and hosting board game parties at their local library.
