Lenny Cyrus School Virus is an unforgettable book. At first, it seems a little bit slow but after about a page the book sweeps your mind into the story. Lenny Cyrus is a thirteen year old genius. With parents who have won Nobel Piece Prizes and have I.Q's of 190 and 185, that's not very surprising. Lenny uses his smarts for smart things, although his best friend Harlan does't think so at times. But Lenny really surprises Harlan when he plans to literally shrink himself to the size of a germ and get himself inside his crush, Zooey's, body. He thinks that if he gets into her brain, he can change her mind about him. But when Zooey's body starts reacting to having a strange thing inside of her, Lenny must save her before it's too late! I would recommend this book for kids who like science-fiction and even if you don't, like myself, you would probably still enjoy this book. I can't wait until the next Lenny Cyrus book comes out.

This book was one of the best I have read in a long time. The author does a great job of expressing every single detail especially when Lenny was in a human body. It it written in chapters with a different character talking in each chapter. It also taught you a little about human bodies with a lot of fiction mixed in.
"Lenny Cyrus, School Virus" is about... Well, Lenny Cyrus as a virus. Lenny is a genius, at 14 years old, and he figures out how to shrink himself to the size of a microbe. In a rash decision, Lenny decides to use his discovery to go into his crush's body and make her like him. Nothing too difficult, just switching around a couple things in her brain. Or so he thinks. This book is a little confusing, but actually taught me a lot, and I liked the bit of romance that was thrown in. Enjoy!
This was a really good book. From the outside it may seem and little kidish but never judge and book by its cover. It surprised me, but this book was actually really intriguing. It is about this really smart boy named Lenny Cyrus, who comes up with a way to shrink himself down to molecule size. Then he goes inside his a girl he likes's body to try and really change her mind about him. But as soon as he is in things go terribly wrong. It is up to Lenny to fix what he started! Everyone should read this book!
This book is great! Lenny is so smart he seems superhuman! Schreiber does a great job illustrating as well as using descriptive words to make the book better. Harlan seems like a friend I would like to have myself! Also his "perspective" chapters were a pretty nice add-on. READ IT!
14-year-old Lenny Cyrus is a genius. So when he figures out how to shrink things into a molecular size, his best friend Harlan isn't surprised. Then comes a journey into his crush, Zooey Andrews's body filled with bullies and friends, just like his regular school. Filled with an interesting plot and problem, you just can't put it down until you finish it. Along with that, you might even learn something you didn't know before. I learned about things that existed in the human body that I never knew about in this book.
