(4) 4-6 Simon finds a teacher's edition physics textbook that grants him control over the laws of the universe. The story is told by a self-aware, intentionally didactic (though unintentionally grating) omniscient narrator who's dragged kicking and screaming through the fourth wall by Simon and friends. This derivative but entertaining adventure rejoices in its fast-paced, affectionate silliness.
