<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Phineas has a new chore of cooking dinner every night, but his kitchen experiments take a turn for the worse when the school bully takes a huge liking to Phineas's brownies"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Chemistry in the kitchen? Phineas L. MacGuire applies his science skills to culinary creations in this food-tastic tale from the bestselling author of <i>Chicken Boy</i>.</b> <p/>Phineas L. MacGuire--scientist extraordinaire--has a new chore: cooking dinner every night. He may be a genius, but he knows nothing about following a recipe. A pinch? A dash? A smidge? This doesn't seem very scientific<i>. </i>A pound of spaghetti? Salt on brownies? Lemon in biscuits? Why, these recipes look a little funky. But he'd better learn quickly if he and his friends are going to win the $10,000 Bake-Off prize. And to complicate matters, school bully Evan Forbes has taken a liking to Phineas's brownies...too much of a liking. As in, if Phineas can't make Evan enough brownies, he'll get clobbered for sure. Fortunately for Phineas, he has the help of his friends, and even better, he soon discovers that cooking actually <i>is</i> kind of like chemistry. So the whole recipe thing might just work out--as long as he can keep his cool in the kitchen.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Frances O'Roark Dowell is the bestselling and critically acclaimed author of <i>Dovey Coe</i>, which won the Edgar Award and the William Allen White Award; <i>Where I'd Like to Be</i>; <i>The Secret Language of Girls</i> and its sequels <i>The Kind of Friends We Used to Be</i> and <i>The Sound of Your Voice, Only Really Far Away</i>; <i>Chicken Boy</i>; <i>Shooting the Moon</i>, which was awarded the Christopher Award; the Phineas L.
