Alice is all mixed up. How can it be that a feather and a stone fall at the same speed? How can a ball possibly roll to infinity without anyone pushing it on? Either her teacher has gone mad or science isn’t science but magic. During a strange weekend, Alicia meets Galileo, Archimedes, Newton, Einstein, Madame Curie… and discovers the surprising mysteries in everyday things. This novels takes us deep into the secrets of science in a thoroughly attractive and entertaining way.

Prizes and reviews:

“Carlo Frabetti has managed to square the circle between science and literature.The mathematician by profession and veteran author of children’s and young adult literature takes us into a weekend during which a little girl is complaining about her idiotic physics teacher.” El Cultural, El Mundo, 25-05-12.

“Short, funny, accessible, informative, easy to read. Written to bring physics to the youngest readers, Carlo Frabetti has achieved the most difficult thing yet: using history to demonstrate the physical laws of Newton, Galileo and the Greeks as if they really were a fictional form of entertainment. A book which will delight teachers without defrauding readers.” Mercurio, April 2012.
