Summary: When a young boy ends up getting not a math curse, but a science curse by his teacher Mr. Newton he begins taking famously known poetry, and turning it into Science Poems. Gross poems, poems about the earth, and space, and he cannot stop the curse at all. Will he ever stop thinking about Science Verses?Evaluation: This book is a great book not just for the humor of it, but for the actual facts it gives throughout these humorous yet accurate poems. This book would be the perfect book to read to your students to get them hooked onto science, and even during specific lessons in order to introduce them to a topic in a funny, way.

Your presentation just reminded me to get this book off the shelf for Owen to read. He has really enjoyed reading it!
