This book is written in journal form, which makes it easy for readers to follow. Charlie Gordon is a young adult with a disability. He can't read or write like everyone else, but he certainly gives his best effort. He signs up and is selected to undergo brain surgery. This brain surgery changes his life and for a short while, he is smart - so smart, his doctors that operated on him don't even understand the concepts that he does. Charlie's decline is inevitable. Even Charlie knows it will happen. Read the book to find out more about his struggles. Great book - with excellent Science and cross-curricular connections.
