Danny Dunn and the Universal Glue

Danny Dunn, son of Professor Bullfinch's housekeeper, is a headstrong and inquisitive lad whose curiosity never fails to lead him into adventure! In this book, Danny and friend Irene stumble onto a perilous situation that the Professor's latest invention may help to avert! Even though the technology described in the Danny Dunn books is a bit dated in some cases, the science on which it's based is sound and the kid-oriented adventure found in each story never goes out of style. I fell in love with this series of books when I was a kid in the '60s; I enjoy reading them with my son (now 11) today.

I read this book as a young teen and I absolutely loved it. It is a star in the Danny Dunn series and has a good dose of mystery and some interesting science. I highly recommend this book to parents who have children around ages 8-12 that show interest in chemistry, biology or environmental science. It's one of those fun books that your budding scientist will definitely remember.

Even though I read this book a little while ago, I remember it being good. I liked the whole book, especially the end and the middle.
