The Smartest Kid in the Universe

I wonder if the author based this character on any childhood experiences or if it was entirely imagined from scratch.

The way the book mixes clever jokes with scientific ideas made it so engaging. I’d love to hear if others found the humor helped them understand the concepts better.

The kid’s quirks and flaws made him more relatable, but I’m curious if others felt he was well-rounded or a little too idealized.
