Lenny Cyrus, School Virus

It seemed so logical at first. Fourteen-year-old Lenny Cyrus had loved Zooey Andrews since third grade. All the boy genius needed to do to win her heart was shrink down to the size of an amoeba, ooze into a gelatin capsule, and have his friend Harlan slip it (him!) into Zooey’s Diet Coke.

Told in three voices, this fantastical middle grade novel takes Lenny deep into Zooey’s loud, splashing innards. The question is, will Lenny and Zooey survive his crazy experiment in nanotechnology? |

"The action is fast, furious, and even funny for middle-schoolers with strong stomachs and fond memories of similar journeys on Ms. Frizzle's Magic School Bus."
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Schreiber alternates among Lenny, Harlan, and Zooey's perspectives in short, taut, action-packed chapters with cliffhanger endings."
—Publishers Weekly "There is so much here to enjoy."
—Kirkus "With perfect timing, the story slides between typical middle-school scenes and Lenny's fantastic microscopic journey, balancing clever, wise-guy repartee with gut-wrenching tension."
