SynopsisYou don't choose the book--the book chooses you. Sixth grader Spencer Lemon is rapidly losing his eyesight. So he has no idea why he was chosen to guard Pandora's Book. When Ed, the old guy at a nursing home, hands over the book, there's no time to explain the rules to Spencer. Spencer only knows that the book contains famous dead people--who can be brought back to life. Then Ed disappears, and a strange man shows up on Spencer's doorstep--and he seems to know a lot about Pandora's Book. Is he a bad guy? Or can he help Spencer unravel the secrets of the book? There are others interested in Pandora's Book, others who might use its powers for evil. It's up to Spencer; his friend Gregor; and Ed's mysterious granddaughter, Mel, to protect the book--and save the world., You don't choose the book--the book chooses you. Sixth grader Spencer Lemon has a degenerative eye disease--and he's rapidly losing his eyesight. So he has no idea why he was chosen to guard Pandora's Book. When Ed, the old guy at the nursing home, hands over the book, he doesn't get a chance to explain any of the rules to Spencer. Spencer only knows that the book contains famous dead people--people who can be brought back to life. Spencer and his autistic best friend, Gregor, soon figure out how to get people out of the book, but not how to get them back in. Then Ed disappears, and a strange man shows up on Spencer's doorstep--and he seems to know a lot about Spencer and about Pandora's Book. Is he one of the bad guys? Or is here to help Spencer unravel the secrets of the book? But there are others interested in Pandora's Book, others who might use its powers to take over the world. And it's up to Spencer, along with Gregor and Ed's mysterious (and cute) granddaughter Mel, to protect the book--and save the world.
