The Fourteenth Goldfish by Jennifer L. Holm

4.0

When Ellie's grandfather discovers the secret to reversing the aging process and shows up at her house as a 13-year-old, Ellie's whole world is about to change. Ellie is entering middle school, losing some friends while gaining new, and discovering her love for science thanks to her scientist grandfather. This is a cute and thoughtful book. While its character is only eleven, any age can relate to the struggles of finding who you are and your place in the world. I also enjoyed all the references to science that may spark inquiring, student-minds to conduct some of their own research!
