This is the third book in the Frank Einstein series. All of your favorite characters return, but you don't really have to have read the first two books in order to get up to speed. Frank Einstein is a boy genius inventor, with a human pal, two robot sidekicks, and an evil, (actually mostly just sneaky and mean), boy inventor nemesis.It's humor, action, science, science-fiction, and slapstick, all rolled into one. This time around Frank is trying to help his gal pal, Janegoodall, juice her fastball in order to get ready for baseball try-outs. So, we learn about the human body, including muscles, blood circulation, respiration, and the five senses. All of that comes into play as Frank noodles different ways to improve Janegoodall's performance, so the science and the antics all blend together nicely.When you combine a fine hero, an amusing sidekick, two funny robot sidekicks, a kid villain, and a chimp villain sidekick, you really have a successful recipe. The humor is aimed high and low. There is slapstick and some kid friendly gross stuff. But on the other hand, there are some more sophisticated bits involving puns and sly cultural references. It's always a good sign when there's a little bit of everything for a wide range of young readers,and it seems to me that Scieszka is especially adept at writing middle grade books with wide appeal.So, a nice find, especially for young readers with a scientific bent, and just plain good fun.(Please note that I found this book while browsing the local library's books. I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.)

My son and I have read all the books in this series and this is by far the most disappointing. Don't get me wrong, it was not a bad book by any stretch, but just not as entertaining as the other 2. There were heaps of facts and not enough story line (or Mr. Chimp!!) in my opinion. The other 2 stories did a great job of keeping things funny and engaging, while also educating at the same time. This one was just a tad too overloading on the educational stuff. Hope the next story in the series picks back where the first 2 books left off.

This is the third book in this series that my 4th grader has read and he's loved them! This new book doesn't disappoint. Frank and his team are on new adventures and my son learned so much about science and didn't even realize he was learning. Wonderful books for your little reader 8+ and especially for a reluctant reader. My son spent each night reading this just to finish. He's already waiting for the next installment!!!

Kids really like the Frank Einstein series, however this paperback book was made so poorly, that it was falling apart in just a few days. Very discouraging to have pages keep falling out every time they are turned.

My kids (10 and 8) absolutely love this series, and I love all the fascinating science information they are picking up while reading it! We already pre-ordered the next book!

My son loved the book and finished the book in one day. He liked the first book in the series :)

The book arrived a week before the "expected" date and is as described -- great!

My boys love ALL the Frank Einstein books....can't wait for the next one!
