<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Eleven-year-old Ellie has never liked change. She misses fifth grade. She misses her old best friend. She even misses her dearly departed goldfish. Then one day a strange boy shows up. He's bossy. He's cranky. And weirdly enough ... he looks a lot like Ellie's grandfather, a scientist who's always been slightly obsessed with immortality. Could this pimply boy really be Grandpa Melvin? Has he finally found the secret to eternal youth?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Con una buena dosis de humor, <i>El pez número catorce</i> propone a sus lectores observar con atención, desconfiar de las apariencias y, por encima de todo, reflexionar sobre si lo posible es siempre lo más deseable. <p/></b>A Ellie no le gustan nada los cambios. Echa de menos la escuela primaria, a su mejor amiga Brianna e incluso a Nemo, el pez que había sido su mascota durante años. <p/>Un día, su madre, que es profesora de teatro en el instituto, llega a casa con un chico muy raro. Viste como un adulto y se comporta como un gruñón y un cascarrabias. Pero lo más llamativo es que, por increíble que parezca, se asemeja mucho a Melvin Sagarsky, el abuelo de Ellie, un científico que ha dedicado todo su esfuerzo a estudiar el envejecimiento humano. <p/>¿No será que ese adolescente desgarbado es en realidad el abuelo Melvin? ¿Es posible que haya descubierto el secreto de la juventud eterna? <p/><b>Ganadora de tres Menciones de Honor Newbery, Jennifer L. Holm invita a los niños a asomarse al mundo de la ciencia de forma amena y accesible.</b> <p/><b>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION <p/><b>Believe in the possible . . . with this <i>New York Times</i> bestseller by three-time Newbery Honor winner Jennifer L.
