A funny and absurdist classic for fans of Gordon Korman and Jennifer Holm, about a boy who believes he can photosynthesize for his school project… and maybe he really can?
I'm writing this in case something happens to me. There's a brown car with two men in front of the house. They're watching the place…
Thus begins the secret diary of Allen Brewster, a boy with a special idea for his school science project:human photosynthesis, converting sunlight into food.
Everyone laughs at his strange plan, until Allen turns green, grows roots, and craves sunlight. He turns into a plant! No one believes he's not joking, except the President of the United States, who labels Allen a national threat. Thus, Allen and his discovery become top secret.
Can Allen keep his discovery secret and successfully complete his project without posing a danger? Find out in this humorous, illustrated story in the tradition of Pippi Longstocking and Miss Piggly-Wiggly.
