Joyful anarchy. You won't learn a too much about science in this book, but you'll learn a tremendous amount about the weird imagination of Arnold Roth, and maybe that's even better?
My favorite book from Junior High. I read this from the Packwood Library when we lived at Ohanapecosh during the summer months at Mount Rainier. I loved the combination of Arnold Roth’s crazy cartoons and his skewed off-the-wall view of science. The book has been out of print for years, but I recently discovered that it is viewable online at the archive.org Internet Archive website.
