THE BOY WHO REVERSED HIMSELF
New York : Dutton, 1986.
IL 5-8  RL 6.5
ISBN 0140389652
Omar is a nerd. He seems to be spying on Laura who is just getting to be friends with Peter - a real popular boy. She doesn't need Omar around to ruin her image, but the more she hangs around Omar, the more curious she gets. Why do some of her papers have reversed lettering after Omar gets old of them? How can he part his hair on opposite sides --all in the same day? Laura gets taken on an adventure with Omar and later she drags Pete on a wild trip. This science fiction experience with the fourth dimension will give you a whole new dimension to think about!
