(2) 1-3 Illustrated by Preston McDaniels. Fast-talking, quick-thinking fourth-grader Mac (From the Highly Scientific Notebooks of Phineas L. MacGuire) builds a mold museum. As always, best friend Ben is there to provide encouragement. Dowell's narrator stays true to himself, reveling in slime molds and other creeping fungi. Newly independent readers will appreciate the amusing pencil sketches, easy-to-read font, and the familiar and funny situations.
