Oliver has a lot on his mind starting his first year in high school: new friends, new classes, everything new. But at least there's one thing that still makes sense: PHYSICS! Determined to become an astrophysicist someday, Oliver explains everything he learns – how the sun burps, how ghost particles fly through us, the uncanny similarities between Mercury and the meatballs in the school cafeteria. (Oh, and there are black holes that warp time, exploding stars, and aliens! Well, there might be aliens.) Oliver feels like things are starting to settle... But will he manage to stay out of the principal's office or get rid of his annoying sister? THE PRESS WROTE Expands horizons and is hilarious! JEFF KINNEY, author of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series This funny book will make the whole family laugh and learn at the same time. KAZU KIBUISHI, creator of the Amulet graphic novel series A delightful read. CARLO ROVELLI, theoretical physicist and author of the international bestseller Seven Brief Lessons on Physics
